32% of Shadadiya industrial project complete: Al-Nahedh
Kuwait:
Commerce and Industry Minister Mazen Al-Nahedh
revealed the completion rate of the Shadadiya industrial project has reached 32
percent, showing the keenness of all concerned parties to finish the project
within the planned period. “The project aims to achieve all the needs of
economic and industrial growth by providing the basis of developing a modern
industrial area as well as providing it with the latest technologies,” Nahedh
said.
“The project will consist of three main sectors – chemical, food and mixed
sectors, on 1,036 industrial plots. The project will be operated using
sustainable development techniques during the contractual period. Accessing the
area is relatively easy, whether by the current or future roads,” he said.
“Industrial development has become one of the targets of non-oil growth for
Kuwait, as the trend is to strengthen and support this sector within the
objectives of the New Kuwait 2035 development plan, ensuring the industrial
sector is one of the main non-oil resources of the state,” Nahedh added.
In other news, the minister added three new activities including building
private universities and colleges to commercial activities in the unified guide
for categorizing economic activities in the GCC, along with selling used clothes
as well as sales of agricultural, water and electricity equipment.
