Taarek Refaat Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly met today with representatives of major global luxury brands in New Alamein City, aiming to position Egypt as a regional hub for high-end retail and attract new foreign direct investment in the fashion and lifestyle sector. The high-level meeting included Khaled Abdel Ghaffar, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Health, alongside Claudine Caviac and Ibrahim Sami—strategic partners to some of the world's leading luxury fashion houses. Senior officials from Egypt's export, investment, and trade authorities were also in attendance. PM Madbouly welcomed the global brand representatives and emphasized Egypt's strategic market potential, noting a growing domestic appetite for luxury products and the opportunity to enhance retail offerings for international tourists. "Egypt has a vast consumer base. Many Egyptians travel abroad for luxury shopping, and we want to provide those experiences here at home—especially for tourists visiting Egypt," he stated. He highlighted Egypt's recent economic reforms, including foreign exchange liberalization, which have stabilized currency markets and improved the investment environment. The government is actively working to support "shopping tourism" as part of broader economic diversification goals. Minister Abdel Ghaffar stressed the government's commitment to attracting international retail giants and detailed several incentives available to foreign investors. These include tax benefits and trade exemptions under the Euro 1 certificate, allowing goods imported into Egypt from Europe to benefit from reduced customs duties. Claudine Caviac, who has previously visited Egypt for both business and leisure, praised the country's recent development and expressed her optimism about its stability and potential. 'I'm impressed by Egypt's progress. There are clear signs of opportunity here,' she said, noting that she would conduct a detailed feasibility study and present it to leading global luxury brands. Caviac added that the aim would be to recreate a successful, integrated shopping experience for both Egyptians and foreign tourists—making Egypt a compelling destination for high-end retail. Strategic partner Ibrahim Sami echoed that sentiment, expressing strong interest in bringing international fashion investments to Egypt and contributing his expertise to the project. Madbouly concluded the meeting by calling for the development of a concrete action plan to ensure the successful entry of luxury brands into the Egyptian market. He reiterated Egypt's readiness to partner with global retail leaders and support them with infrastructure, regulatory facilitation, and market access. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

PM: 80% of Workforce at El-Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant "Egyptian"
Taarek Refaat Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly visited the El-Dabaa nuclear power plant construction site on Wednesday, where he confirmed that Egyptian workers now make up more than 80% of the workforce. The announcement reflects the government's growing emphasis on domestic capacity building in one of the most technically advanced infrastructure projects in the nation's history. Accompanied by the Ministers of Electricity and Renewable Energy and Finance, as well as senior officials from the Russian contractor Atomstroyexport and Egypt's Nuclear Power Plants Authority, the Prime Minister marked the occasion by commemorating the 73rd anniversary of Egypt's 1952 revolution. "This site holds deep national significance," Madbouly said. "It has been a dream of Egyptians since the mid-20th century—to see Egypt enter the nuclear era through peaceful energy production." The El-Dabaa project, located on Egypt's northern Mediterranean coast, remained a long-standing aspiration for decades, appearing in school curricula and state planning documents. According to Madbouly, the dream began to turn into action in 2015 with the signing of the initial agreement between Egypt and Russia. Construction officially began in December 2017. The plant will consist of four nuclear reactors with a combined capacity of 4,800 megawatts. The first unit is expected to be operational in the second half of 2028, with the remaining three units scheduled for completion in 2029. Egypt is adhering to a closely monitored construction schedule, with ongoing collaboration between Egyptian and Russian teams. 'We are witnessing this dream become reality,' Madbouly said. 'This is a source of pride for every Egyptian.' The Prime Minister emphasized that more than 80% of the thousands of workers currently on-site are Egyptian, highlighting the nation's growing expertise in large-scale engineering and energy projects. "This is a matter of national pride. Seeing tens of thousands of Egyptian engineers and workers trusted to build such a complex project reflects our true capabilities," he added. The El-Dabaa project plays a key role in Egypt's Vision 2030, which targets a 42% share of electricity generation from renewable and clean energy sources. Nuclear energy is viewed as a critical pillar of this transition. Madbouly concluded his remarks by thanking all partners and agencies involved, expressing confidence in Egypt's ability to deliver on time and within scope. 'We are not just building a power plant—we are building a future powered by knowledge, sovereignty, and clean energy,' he said. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks
