Al-Wazir unveils plan to modernize Super Jet buses

Lieutenant General Kamel Al-Wazir, Deputy Prime Minister for Industrial Development and Minister of Industry and Transport, chaired the Ordinary General Assembly of Super Jet, the Arab Union for Land Transport and Tourism. During the meeting, the company’s financial statements, final accounts, Board of Directors’ report, auditors’ report, and the Central Auditing Organization’s report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 were approved.

The Board’s report highlighted the company’s achievements, including asset development, optimal investment to maximize financial returns, upgrading several stations, implementing electronic reservation systems, and expanding the fleet to provide high-quality passenger services. By the end of 2024, Super Jet owned 223 buses. The electronic booking system, accessible via customer service, website, and mobile app, significantly boosted revenues. Total revenue for 2024 reached EGP 617 million, with 46,090 trips completed and 3.1 million passengers served.

Al-Wazir emphasized the need to continually equip the company with the latest buses, particularly gas- and electric-powered models. He noted the ministry’s efforts to implement presidential directives to localize bus manufacturing in Egypt and enhance collaboration with private sector companies. This approach, he added, aligns with the broader government strategy of supporting national industries, conserving foreign currency, creating youth employment, meeting local market needs, and expanding exports, positioning Egypt as a major industrial hub for bus production.

He stressed that fleet modernization must go hand in hand with service improvements. All company garages should be model facilities capable of efficiently servicing the fleet. Efforts include expanding model stations, adding new routes, upgrading workshops, enhancing technical staff and driver training, maintaining bus schedules, and keeping passengers informed. These measures ensure that Super Jet maintains its leadership in the sector while providing high-quality services.
