goes to the Free Zone facilities provided to investors that include equipment,

Dr.
Abu-Ghazaleh explained while there that the idea of establishing the TAGTech
factory in Jordan comes in response to the vision of HM King Abdullah II to pay
considerable attention to technology and its tools, referring to Mis Majesty’s
keenness  that Jordan should embrace the technological developments and to
employ them in serving Jordan and developing people’s performance. 

Additionally,
Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh stated that the TAGTech factory in Jordan as well as the one
in Egypt; which was established in partnership with the Arab Organization for Industrialization, are considered
the first of their kind in the region and its surroundings. He proudly added

America in terms of their production capacity.

It
is worth mentioning that the new TAGTech factory will provide technological job
opportunities for Jordanians and will contribute to qualifying Jordanian
workforce in a specialized technological industry. The manufacturing process at
the factory will be conducted through three production lines; two assembly
lines and one packaging line with a production volume that cover the needs
regionally and globally offering technological devices manufactured and
produced by TAGTech’s Jordanian and Arab expertise.
