The Egyptian Government has announced plans to establish two integrated textile cities in Upper Egypt. One will be located in the Minya’s Wadi El-Saririya area and the other in the northern industrial zone of Fayoum. Each city will cover an area of 5.5 million square meters, making a total of 11 million square meters.

Deputy Prime Minister for Industrial Development and Minister of Industry and Transport Kamel Al-Wazir unveiled the initiative at a press conference.

The two cities are expected to attract US$3.5 billion in local and foreign investment and create 400,000 direct and indirect jobs. This is reported by Daily News Egypt, a partner of TV BRICS.

Al-Wazir said the government plans to increase Egypt's textile and clothing exports from US$2.8 billion to US$11.5 billion over the next five years, positioning the sector as a key driver of industrial growth.
