The new factory will produce products from a wide range of Beko brands, including Whirlpool, Ariston, Indesit, and Hitachi.
The hub's administration building will house an R&D center in partnership with universities to support talent development and technological expertise. It will also include a training academy, quality labs, a showroom, and 'The Kitchen,' a center for demonstrating culinary technology.

Our success has only made us more determined to do even better. Solidifying our commitment to the Egyptian market and the wider MENA region, this facility will both benefit our industry and consumers and promote responsible production with a particular focus on zero waste, as well as water and energy efficiency.
