非洲公司将在卢旺达建造价值1200万美元的服装厂

 

African firms to set up $12mn garment factory in Rwanda

A new RWF 10 billion ($12.44 million) garment and footwear factory will come up in Kigali, capital of East African nation of Rwanda, as two African companies have signed an agreement for the purpose. Albert Supply Ltd and Prime Economic Zone Ltd have entered into a renewable 5-year land lease agreement with Rwanda's ministry of trade and industry (Minicom).

As per the deal, the two companies will obtain 2.5 hectares of land to set up the factory, for which operation is expected to begin by July 2017, Rwandan media reports said.

The deal was signed between textile investors and the ministry after the former complained about the costs of land in the area being too high. The land being provided to the companies is part of 5 hectares of land secured by the ministry in the Kigali Special Economic Zone.

Albert Supply will manufacture garments from cotton, leather and other raw materials, whereas Prime Economic Zone will produce belts, bags and shoes from leather.

Albert Supply is a competent investor which can bring about a change to influence others, said Francois Kanimba, Minicom minister of Rwanda.

The government of Rwanda is promoting domestic production and consumption through the 'made-in-Rwanda' campaign. Additionally, more than 400 tailors under the Kigali Garment Centre (KGC) are raising RWF 3 billion ($3.73 million) for a clothing factory.

一个新的价值 100亿卢旺达法郎(1244万美元)的服装和鞋类工厂将在东非国家卢旺达首都基加利建立,因为两个非洲公司已经为此签署了一项协议。艾伯特供应有限公司和主要经济开发区有限公司与卢旺达工贸部订立一份可再生的5年土地租赁协议。

根据协议,两家公司将获得2.5公顷的土地用于建立工厂,预计2017年7月开始操作,卢旺达媒体报道说。

两个纺织投资者与工贸部签署协议，是在投资者抱怨该地区土地成本过高之后。提供给公司的土地是由基加利经济特区部门确定的5公顷土地的一部分。

艾伯特供应有限公司将生产由棉花、皮革和其他原材料制成的服装,而主要经济区有限公司将生产用皮革制成的皮带,包包和鞋子。

艾伯特供应有限公司是一名有能力的投资者，可以产生影响从而改变他人,卢旺达部长Francois Kanimba说。

卢旺达政府将通过“卢旺达制造”运动促进国内生产和消费。此外,基加利服装中心400多个裁缝将为服装厂挣得30亿卢旺达法郎(373万美元)。
