Today, Wednesday, the most modernized factory for manufacturing pasta, couscous and semolina was inaugurated on an area of 60 hectares in the Dafniya area of Zliten in the Dafniya Food Complex. It contains juice, flour, semolina, oil, pasta and couscous factories of the Whiba Holding.
This project will transfer the industry through the private sector to real competition, and provides hundreds of job opportunities, in addition to the fact that the factory occupies an area of 60 hectares and employs more than 900 employees within the Dafnia Food Complex. Production will cover all needs and local consumption. It also aims to export to Africa and neighboring countries.
Thus, it will achieve stability for food security, enhance job opportunities for Libyan youth, and reduce import from abroad for basic commodities. The complex’s administration also began receiving wheat shipments from local farmers in agricultural fields in southern Libya, and the first quantities to the complex’s silos arrived, which enhances the agricultural activity in Libya and stimulates local production and achieves a better economy.
