Debei credits incentives for investments in Muwaqqar, Hussein industrial estates

AMMAN — The Muwaqqar and Hussein industrial estates recently attracted 22 investments valued at more than JD23 million as a result of incentives the Jordan Industrial Estate Company (JIEC) announced in these two estates, JIEC Chief Executive Jalal Al Debei said on Tuesday.

At a meeting with Adel Shukri, first deputy president of the Cairo Chamber of Commerce, Debei said partnership with the private sector was essential in promoting the business environment in the Kingdom.

JIEC's "advanced level" in designing, establishing and marketing industrial estates, through its current projects and future schemes to be implemented in Jerash, Balqa, Madaba and Tafileh, will provide a good investment opportunity for all businesses planning to operate in Jordan, he added.

Shukri said the continued efforts of JIEC in promoting industrial investments in the Kingdom encourage Egyptians to run projects in the country.

Both sides also highlighted the importance of holding joint meetings among all economic commissions in both countries.
