Egypt’s Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly has inaugurated Oppo’s new smartphone factory, marking another milestone in the country’s expanding electronics manufacturing sector.

According to Zawaya, the facility supports Egypt’s “Egypt Makes Electronics” initiative, a key pillar in the government’s broader strategy to drive economic growth by reducing imports and boosting local production.

Madbouly notes that the initiative has already led to a rise in exports and attracted more companies to establish manufacturing facilities for mobile phones, tablets, and fibre optic cables in Egypt.

Oppo has pledged to invest around US$50 million into manufacturing facilities in Egypt. The new 24,000-square-metre plant currently produces smartphones and employs 2,000 people. The factory has a production capacity of 400,000 units per month - equivalent to 4.8 million devices per year - with plans already in motion to increase output to 500,000 units monthly.

Egypt now hosts 15 mobile phone and accessories brands with a combined annual capacity of 20 million units and total investments of approximately US$20 million, underscoring the nation’s growing status as a regional electronics manufacturing hub.

Egypt is aggressively ramping up local smartphone manufacturing in a bid to not only bring down costs but also slash reliance on [grey-market imports and improve device affordability](https://developingtelecoms.com/telecom-technology/telecom-devices-platforms/18853-device-registries-making-the-grey-market-more-black-and-white.html).
