Egypt’s Industrial Development Authority (IDA) is planning to launch a number of land plots over 1.75 million square metres for investors until the end of this year, official sources in the authority said on Wednesday.
“The authority is set to launch next week 750,000 square metres across all the different industrial zones in Egypt for investors,” the sources further told Amwal Al Ghad.
Badr and 10th of Ramadan cities will capture the lion’s share of 500,000 square metres of the IDA’s new launch, the sources said. The remaining 250,000 square metres will locate in other cities across the country, they added.
