ArabFinance: As part of its pivotal role in unlocking the economic potential of the African continent, Elsewedy Electric will participate in the “PIDA” week Program for Infrastructure Development in Africa on 25-29 November in Cairo, Egypt. PIDA is a strategic continental initiative with support from all African countries for mobilizing resources to transform Africa through modern infrastructure development.

“Following the approach of 2063 Agenda to deliver inclusive and sustainable development and since Egypt and the African countries have strong, long-standing relations, we are working side-by side to achieve this vision because this is “The Africa We Want,” said Eng. Abdel Aziz El Gamal, Regional Commercial Director North Africa, Elsewedy Electric. “We are deeply committed to execute infrastructure projects in the various sectors to benefit the welfare of the African community.”

In line with the Egyptian Government’s approach focusing on infrastructure development projects, Elsewedy Electric had delivered a diverse range of projects across sectors such as Power Generation, Transmission & Distribution, Energy Management Solutions, Developing Industrial Cities, Construction of Bridges and Tunnels.

“For the past 20 years, Elsewedy Electric has been a market leader with a firm footprint across Africa, working to strengthen the continent’s role as a key economic engine for the region and empowering a better Africa together,” said Eng. Ahmed Elsewedy, President, and CEO of Elsewedy Electric. “We have a proven record of successes as a key player in the majority of megaprojects implemented across Egypt and Africa over the years and we will continue to expand our market development to the region and beyond.”

Elsewedy Electric is committed to the sustainable development of the continent by providing financial solutions to African governments with credit and tailored payment terms for projects of all scales.
