Riyadh – Asdaf News:
In order to localize the market and spread awareness about high-efficiency N95 masks, the Local Content and Government Procurement Authority (LCGPA) has inked a contract with the National Unified Procurement Company (NUPCO), Enaya Company, and beneficiary government organisations.
LCGPA CEO Abdulrahman Al-Samari said that the agreement was reached with the aim of enhancing health security and securing supply chains, and will contribute to the GDP by SAR24 million within five years. Furthermore, it will contribute significantly to creating new jobs in the local market and enable factories to expand and increase their production capacities.
The arrangement, according to Al-Samari, is a component of the LCGPA’s efforts to boost domestic production in the private sector, encourage local firms to export, and bring in new technology for Saudi Arabia.
He congratulated all of the government organizations that contributed to the deal, including the NUPCO, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority, and the Expenditure and Projects Efficiency Authority.
