KARACHI: The Sindh government has announced the establishment of Pakistan’s first Marble City in Karachi, aimed at boosting the local marble industry and attracting investment. The initiative, revealed by Sindh Information Minister Sharjeel Memon, is part of a broader strategy to enhance economic growth and create job opportunities in the region.
Memon stated that the Marble City will provide a dedicated space for marble processing and manufacturing, which is expected to significantly increase production capacity and quality. He emphasized the importance of this project in promoting local craftsmanship and reducing reliance on imported marble products. The government is actively seeking partnerships with private investors to ensure the project’s success.
This development is poised to have a substantial impact on the local economy, potentially generating thousands of jobs and fostering entrepreneurship in the marble sector. With Pakistan being rich in marble resources, the establishment of a specialized industrial zone is expected to enhance the country’s competitiveness in the global market.
Next steps include finalizing the location and design of the Marble City, with plans for a groundbreaking ceremony in the coming months. The Sindh government is committed to facilitating the necessary infrastructure and regulatory support to attract investors and ensure the project’s timely completion.
