He said: We are confident that local manufacturing will contribute to reducing costs and providing new job opportunities for young people.”
Ragab explained that Al Fajr Medical reviewed during the conference and the accompanying exhibition its latest products that help provide better healthcare to patients, including “medical gas networks”, “control boxes”, “patient head service unit”, “medical bed”, “volume meter”, “suction regulator” and other products.

He explained that the company is working hard to develop its products and technologies to meet the needs of the local market, while adhering to the highest standards of quality and efficiency.
At the same time, Ragab stressed the importance of the efforts made by the political leadership and the Egyptian government to improve healthcare for citizens, by investing in health infrastructure, providing medicines and medical supplies at reasonable prices, and encouraging medical industries.
