It will have a production capacity covering Egypt, the Middle East, Africa, and Asian markets, estimated at 4 billion loaded vaccine doses and over 5 billion live vaccine doses.
The third building, Building 5, with a total area of 9,000 square meters, will be allocated for the research and development center to serve the entire region with human and veterinary vaccines, in addition to the presence of an administrative department to serve the entire factory area.
