Paradise Textiles' Egypt facility will produce high-performance polyester and synthetic fabrics primarily for activewear and sportswear targeting US and European markets.
The company has arranged $72m in financing from Commercial International Bank-Egypt (CIB), with funds to be disbursed in three phases according to project milestones. The initial tranche of $35.5m has already been released.
Construction and operational plans for the site include the use of production technologies designed to lower environmental impact and machinery that reduces energy and water consumption.
Integrated environmental management systems will be implemented for ongoing monitoring and optimisation of performance.
Paradise Textiles expects the plant to generate approximately 1,200 jobs over the next two years, contributing to local economic growth and reinforcing Egypt’s position as a centre for textile manufacturing.
Global demand for facilities adhering to international sustainability standards as well as regulatory changes are influencing sourcing strategies among apparel brands.
Egypt offers duty-free access to the US through the Qualifying Industrial Zones (QIZ) agreement and is geographically close to European markets, making it a strategic choice for manufacturers.
The new facility will also see the installation of Regen, described as the world’s first microfibre filtration system specifically developed for textile production, which is intended to address fibre fragmentation during manufacturing.
Located next to Alpine Group’s Egypt manufacturing hub, Alex Apparels, the site will allow closer collaboration between fabric development and garment production, enabling faster speed to market and improved supply chain transparency across both fabric and finished goods.
Alpine Group and Paradise Textiles co-founder and chairman Ashok Mahtani said: “This project reflects our long-term vision of bringing fabric innovation closer to the needle, strengthening vertical integration and building manufacturing ecosystems that are fit for the future.
“As global brands face increasing sustainability expectations and evolving regulatory requirements, the development of this facility underlines our commitment to responsible growth, transparency and operational excellence. We are listening carefully to our partners and investing accordingly.”
The plant is scheduled to commence operations by the third quarter of 2026.
