Sherif Hamouda, Chairman of GV Group, gives an overview of Tarboul City project, the first green and smart industrial city development project in Egypt.

“Tarboul is a city. We started preparing the project six or seven years ago. The project is a 109 million square meter industrial park and industrial city. We worked hard to obtain all the environmental and industrial licenses. The project is located in a very unique location. It is 30 kilometers outside of Cairo, 70 kilometers away from New Cairo, and 65 kilometers from the east of Cairo. The location is perfect over the Nile River and is bordered by the North, Middle and South which makes it a prime location. The design of a master plan for such a project was not easy. We had many engineers, architects, and experts working with us. We managed to create a design and a business model that are different. When discussing with our partners about the future of this project, we decided that Tarboul City would be a green, smart, livable, industrial city. The location is already green. Smart is the future so we are preparing a data center and more to make this a smart city. It is also important to make the city livable since livability is one of the biggest problems in Egypt. One of the biggest problems in Egypt is traffic. We designed this city so everyone from workers to high end will be accommodated. Finally, it is an industrial city. At Tarboul, we have 12 industrial parks with different conditions and zones with different regulations, etc. Now, we have the final master plan with more than 150 factories already booked. We have many countries that want to move factories to our facilities in Tarboul to be in a big market like Egypt and Africa. It is a very good sign that we are going the right way”, says Sherif Hamouda.
