Egypt has greenlit substantial investments of nearly 2.9 billion Egyptian pounds ($94 million) in new metal industrial projects for the fiscal year 2023-2024. The initiative, spearheaded by the state-owned Metallurgical Industries Holding Company, aims to finance novel projects and augment production lines across affiliated entities.
Egyptalum, the foremost aluminium producer in Egypt, stands at the forefront of this burgeoning development. Bolstering its commitment, the Metallurgical Industries Holding Company has allocated approximately $1 billion to amplify Egyptalum's aluminium production by an impressive 300,000 tonnes annually.
