Through the past couple of years, we have been also involved with several projects in Egypt, especially in the manufacturing space. Most notably, we have assisted Yazaki in creating a private free zone project in Egypt whereby they intend to export 100% of their products abroad with an estimate of EUROS 100 Million in exports yearly. The huge potential of Yazaki project in Egypt has also granted the Golden License for such a project towards the end of 2022. Further, we have assisted CrossBoundary Energy in entering the Egyptian market by developing their first solar energy project in the Suez Economic Zone. Other manufacturers we have helped during the same period include Nova Plastik and EMDEP which also entered the Egyptian market to operate in Industrial Zones managed by the Industrial Development Authority (IDA).
