The Egyptian government has agreed to manufacture Samsung's educational tablets as part of its strategy to localize the technology sector.
The contract with South Korean technology company Samsung would last for five years.
The tablet's specifications, which should be updated every two years, and the selling price have not been agreed upon.
Samsung had previously offered to invest about $30 million to establish a tablet factory in Egypt. The factory would have the capacity to produce up to one million devices annually.
Before the country's agreement with Samsung, Egypt's Ministry of Communications and Information Technology had negotiated with international companies early this year to determine the best offers to manufacture tablets locally.
Two days ago, Egyptian PM Mostafa Madbouly chaired a meeting on the localization of the tablet industry after previously indicating that manufacturing would start as soon as an agreement with Samsung was reached.
