According to a
JFDZ statement on Sunday, the group referred
to a promotion campaign for a number of investor opportunities, which targets
the transit trade sectors and companies working in exporting food,
pharmaceutical and agricultural products, whose activity requires speedy
handling and shipping, within an infrastructure equipped according to the
latest global standards.
Foreign investmentAbdul Hameed Gharaibeh, the
JFDZ Director General, revealed
that 45 percent of the new contracts are foreign investment, while 55 percent
went to Jordanian private sector companies. He believes that these investments
will provide new job opportunities for Jordanian youth.
QAIA's
free zone is becoming the "forefront" of
Jordan's free estates as an investor destination for various investment
sectors, thanks to new tax exemptions launched in Jordan's newly-endorsed
Investment Environment Law.
Gharaibeh also referred to
Royal directives that positively
impact the smart services, infrastructure, and performance of the JFDZ's
unified service center.
Due to increasing demand, the JFDZ administration plans to
announce new investment opportunities in the coming months.
