Today, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi witnessed the opening ceremony of Phase I of Egypt's Future Industrial City and the harvest season activities on the Sheikh Zayed Axis in Giza Governorate, formerly the Dabaa Axis.
Spokesman for the Presidency, Ambassador Mohamed El-Shennawy, said the ceremony included a screening of a documentary film entitled “Egypt’s Future: Capacity and Development.”
The Executive Director of Egypt’s Future Authority for Sustainable Development, Colonel Dr. Bahaa El-Ghannam, offered a briefing on the Authority’s most prominent activities and projects. He reviewed the developments of the Egypt’s Future Industrial City project, which specializes in agricultural manufacturing, and targets the reclamation of 4.5 million feddans. Those include the addition of 800,000 reclaimed feddans to the Egyptian agricultural area by September 2025, so that the total arable land in Egypt will become 13.5 million feddans by 2027. This is to ensure food security, increase exports of agricultural and food products, and reduce Egypt's food import bill, which amounts to approximately $20 billion annually. Colonel Dr. El-Ghannam also touched on the Authority’s efforts to develop the livestock, poultry, and fisheries sector. This is in addition to its activities in mining and exploiting quarry resources located in its lands. The Authority has offered 30% of the shares of its subsidiaries on the stock exchange to expand the base of effective participation and benefit from the outcome of development.
This, while taking into consideration the scope of business of the Authority's affiliated companies in various fields (transportation - electricity distribution - agricultural mechanization - petrochemicals - contracting and well drilling - intermediate goods) which amounts to approximately 100 billion pounds annually. The Authority's activity in the fields of renewable energy production and digital transformation, the establishment of grain storage silos, a refrigerator complex for cooling and freezing crops, a dryer factory and another for fodder were also reviewed.
During the event, President El-Sisi witnessed, via video conference, the opening of the harvest season in several agricultural sectors, including the wheat harvest in the southern sector (East Oweinat), the sugar beet harvest in the southern sector (Aswan), and the sugar beet harvest in the Sadat sector, in addition to the inauguration of the headquarters of the Egypt's Future for Sustainable Development Authority in Almaza.
