Cabinet grants golden license to MAC, Deli Egypt for major industrial projects

The Cabinet, in its meeting today chaired by Prime Minister Dr. Moustafa Madbouly, approved several decisions. Among them, it granted the “single approval” or “Golden License” to MAC for Mobility Manufacturing S.A.E. for its project to establish and operate a factory for the production and assembly of all types of cars, passenger vehicles, buses, and other vehicles. The factory will be located on approximately 30 acres of land adjacent to the 6th of October Dry Port in the industrial and logistics zone of New October City, Giza Governorate.

The project includes setting up and operating a factory for the production and assembly of all types of cars and passenger vehicles, as well as light and medium transport vehicles. It also covers a factory for the production and assembly of microbuses and midibuses with a capacity of up to 25 seats, and buses with a capacity of up to 50 seats. In addition, the project involves establishing a factory to produce and assemble parts and components for these vehicles, including spare parts, tires, and interior entertainment systems. It also includes a fully integrated and modern painting facility, along with all related production materials and components, and the implementation of all complementary activities.

The project is being implemented with an investment cost of approximately EGP 6.3 billion. It is considered a promising initiative that will contribute to deepening and localizing the automotive industry, meeting local market demand, supporting exports, and reducing environmental impacts by promoting electric vehicles and environmentally friendly manufacturing technologies, thereby supporting the green economy.

The project is labor-intensive, expected to create around 1,000 job opportunities across various specialties. It aims to export at least 50% of its production, enhancing the competitiveness of Egyptian products in regional and international markets, increasing foreign currency revenues, and opening new markets for national products in the electric vehicle and advanced technology sectors.

The company’s project, expected to be completed by early 2027, seeks to localize the industry and increase the local content by targeting the production of 50,000 vehicles over a five-year period. This is expected to reduce import dependency during the same period, with the local content ratio starting at 42%, in line with the state’s strategy to deepen local manufacturing and reduce reliance on imports.

At the same time, the Cabinet approved granting the “single approval” or “Golden License” to Deli Egypt for Industry S.A.E. for its project to establish and operate a factory producing all office supplies, school stationery, children’s sports equipment, and other products. The factory will be located on an area of approximately 160,000 square meters in the industrial zone southwest of 10th of Ramadan City, Sharqia Governorate.

This project represents Deli’s first investment in Egypt. Deli is a leading global group in the cultural and technological industries, with over 44 years of experience. During this time, it has established 10 regional centers and 54 branches worldwide. The group also operates e-commerce platforms in major markets such as Amazon, Shopee, and Lazada, and manages 10 independent brands, including Agnite and Nusign, covering 24 product categories, including school and office supplies, office furniture, sporting goods, and tools.

The proposed project is labor-intensive, expected to create around 2,200 job opportunities across various specialties. It is being implemented with an investment cost of approximately EGP 8.8 billion and will contribute to deepening local content in its products by sourcing more than 50% from local suppliers. The project also aims to export at least 50% of its production abroad, with completion expected by mid-February 2027.
