Egypt- Al-Sisi to visit UK, accompanied by business delegation

Egypt's President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi is expected to visit the United Kingdom on 20-21 January, general manager of the commercial affairs at East Port Said Development Company (EP), Ahmed Al Mufti has said.

'An Egyptian business delegation, including our company, will accompany the president during his visit to promote investments in the local market, in addition to a number of Egyptian ministers,' Al Mufti told Daily News Egypt on the sidelines of an event held by the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham), hosted by the representatives of Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone) on Sunday.

UK companies are interested in establishing new partnerships with Egyptian and African counterparts particularly after the Brexit from the European Union (EU), Al Mufti said, noting that Al-Sisi and the Egyptian delegation would attend the UK-Africa Investment Summit on 20 January.
