The Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone) will be one of the biggest seven investment-encouraging zones at the international level by 2030, the SCZone Authority chairman said.

During a field tour in western and eastern Port Said harbors on Wednesday, Ahmed Darwish hailed the great development of the Suez Canal Container Terminal (SCCT).

He stressed that the Sstate is adamant to turn the Suez Canal axis into a developed center of modern industries to serve the Egyptian and international markets.

Developing the Suez Canal zone would create thousands of jobs, he said.

He added that upgrading the East Port Said harbor would enable the port to receive the hugest ships.
