Mansour Group and General Motors launch new vehicle plant in Egypt
What happened
Mansour Group is constructing a vehicle plant in 6th of October City, near Cairo, in partnership with General Motors. The investment exceeds $150 million, and the Cabinet granted a golden license for the light transport manufacturing complex in December 2025. The plant is slated to begin operating in early 2027.

Why it matters
This project represents a large private investment in Egypt’s automotive sector. The complex is designed to boost national exports, with plans to export at least half of its output. The initiative demonstrates Egypt’s efforts to attract car makers and suppliers as a regional production base.
Mohamed Mansour, Chairman of Mansour Group, is involved in regional activities alongside Peter Greenberg.
