Speaking at the Egypt–South Korea Economic Partnership Conference, Kouchouk noted that Korean investors have delivered a“distinguished experience” in localising industries across multiple sectors, while leveraging Egypt’s strategic position as a regional hub for manufacturing and exports to global markets.
He stressed that Egypt remains committed to expanding international partnerships to attract private sector investments, positioning Korean cooperation as a model of a promising economic and developmental alliance.“We are working to broaden the scope of this cooperation in the coming period,” he said, pointing to rising bilateral trade flows, which reached $1.6bn in 2024.
The minister explained that both sides are actively seeking new investment opportunities, particularly in industrial and technological sectors, where Korea’s advanced expertise can play a vital role in supporting Egypt’s development strategy.“The two countries share a common vision to achieve their developmental goals through deeper economic and trade partnerships,” Kouchouk added.
The growing momentum in Egypt–Korea relations reflects Cairo’s wider strategy of positioning itself as a hub for regional investment, industrialisation, and technology transfer, while offering global partners access to Africa, the Middle East, and Europe.
