A flour production factory with an investment of $600,000 has been inaugurated in Ghazni province.
According to officials, this factory has a daily production capacity of 150 tons of flour and has created employment opportunities for approximately 60 individuals.
“We have invested around $600,000 in this factory. The machinery was imported from Turkey, and the factory building was constructed locally,” said Shah Mohammad, the factory’s manager.
Some residents of Ghazni and workers have called on other entrepreneurs to invest within the country to create more job opportunities.
“Investing within the country leads Afghanistan towards self-sufficiency and progress, enabling the nation to rely on itself in every aspect,” said Sediqullah, a resident of Ghazni.
Surgul, one of the factory workers, said: “We are very happy that this factory has become operational in Ghazni province. This initiative allows young people to work in their homeland instead of migrating to other countries. We also urge other investors to launch more projects in Ghazni.”
Local officials have promised to provide more facilities for industrialists in the province.
Abdul Rahman Ahmadi, the head of the Ghazni Chamber of Industries and Mines, said: “We are in discussions with them and have very important meetings scheduled for next week with the Islamic Emirate and the chamber heads. They have shown serious commitment to supporting the industry in terms of taxes and other areas.”
According to official data, currently, including six flour production factories, 100 large and small production factories are active in Ghazni province.
