The US-based Green Boom, a leading US-based manufacturer of bio-degradable absorbents, is all set to establish manufacturing plant and regional distribution centre in Qatar to serve the wider Middle East, North Africa and India.
In this regard, the Investment Promotion Agency Qatar (IPA Qatar) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Green Boom on the sidelines of second Qatar Economic Forum in Doha, published by Bloomberg.
IPA Qatar also signed a MoU with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) on the sidelines. Both the pacts seek to create additional jobs in the country.
The MoU with Green Boom, and PwC, a global leader in professional business services, will enable these leading international companies to deepen their presence in Qatar, creating over 200 new jobs and several major investment, development and training projects.
IPA Qatar’s partnership with Green Boom will facilitate the introduction of the company’s green cutting-edge technologies to the Qatari market through the setting up of a manufacturing plant and regional distribution centre to serve the Middle East, North Africa and India.
In addition to introducing new technologies and accelerating innovative manufacturing in Qatar, the partnership also entails fostering local talent and creating approximately 100 new jobs.
The MoU signed between IPA Qatar and PwC sets the framework for collaboration on promoting Qatar to global investors through joint marketing activities, exchanging knowledge and best practices on foreign direct investment promotion and attraction, and facilitating the expansion of PwC’s team and operations in Qatar creating approximately 100 new jobs.
