The group, he said, constantly seeks to develop and provide an investor-friendly and competitive environment, particularly in the free zone at the Queen Alia International Airport, where industrial and commercial units and a fully equipped business center will be set up to meet the various needs of investors.

Development Zones Director Arwa Hiyari said that the Dead Sea and Ajloun zones, which have like the Dead Sea Corniche and the Ajloun cable car projects, will be new tourist destinations with real investment opportunities that will be an added value to the Jordanian economy.

Badran commended the group's efforts to promote the investment environment in the free zones and its ongoing efforts to boost cooperation between the public and private sectors, adding that JEBA will soon facilitate its members’ and affiliates’ field visits for a first-hand look at the investment opportunities in the free and development zones.
