Member of the Egyptian Industries Union, Mervat El-Husseiny, emphasized that developing Egypt's old industrial zones requires a comprehensive vision and integrated strategy. These zones, numbering over 27, hold significant investments, machinery, and equipment, representing a substantial industrial wealth. El-Husseiny highlighted that reviving these areas necessitates creating subsidiary plans based on thorough studies of each zone's needs and engaging with manufacturers and investors to identify challenges.

El-Husseiny stressed that upgrading infrastructure is a top priority for revitalizing old industrial zones. Improving roads, utilities, electricity supplies, and basic services can alleviate burdens on factories, help them regain production capacity, and enhance competitiveness. She cited the Abu Rawash industrial zone as an example, which has a strategic location but faces issues with roads, insurance, and civil protection, and lacks training centers.

Addressing these challenges requires collaboration and coordination among governorates, the Industrial Development Authority, and the private sector, with involvement from investors and manufacturers in implementing the vision. This approach can contribute to developing old industrial zones and supporting Egypt's industry.
