One of its primary tasks will also be to find local opportunities befitting the Group’s diversified portfolio.
Khalaf Al Habtoor, Founding Chairman of AHG, said: “Despite the world economic situation, Egypt is an important market to be in, with tremendous possibilities due to the reforms implemented by the Egyptian Government, and the infrastructural expansions taking place.
“I have been exploring the opportunities in Egypt for some time, and I am keen on being present there. We are in the process of studying a few prospects at present, which we will announce in due course.”
AHG has a presence in the United States, Austria, Hungary, the United Kingdom and Lebanon. Egypt will become the sixth destination for the Group to operate in, outside the UAE.
