New investments generate 3,650 jobs across Jordan

New industrial investments announced during the Jordanian Industry Day organized by the Amman Chamber of Industry (ACI) on Monday have amounted to $850, generating 3,650 jobs, said President of the ACI Fathi Jaghbir. On Wednesday, Jaghbir told the Jordan News Agency (Petra) that the upcoming projects are expected to generate approximately $1.2 billion in exports. These projects hold significant value as they introduce new industries and will supply vital raw materials to various factories, ultimately reducing the costs of imports, he added. The new projects are spread across the Muwaqqar area, Aqaba, Al Mushata industrial zone, Karak, Madaba, Al Qastal Industrial City, and Irbid.
