Groundbreaking ceremony for Kuwait Optical Cable Factory
On January 30, 2023 , Taihan announced that it had held an groundbreaking ceremony for "Taihan Kuwait," an optical cable manufacturing factory located in Kuwait on January 29, 2023. Taihan Kuwait is a joint venture between Taihan and Rank, a local construction and trading company, and is the first optical cable manufacturing entity in Kuwait.
The Taihan Kuwait factory will be constructed on a 5,000 m2 (1.23 acre) site within the Mina Abdulla Industrial Area, situated in the southeastern part of Kuwait City. The factory design has been approved, and permits for initiating construction and placing major equipment orders have been secured. It is anticipated that the factory will be fully operational and generating revenue by the second half of this year.
Taihan aims to capture the Kuwait optical cable market and actively respond to the increasing demand resulting from infrastructure expansion. Additionally, by leveraging its business network that has supplied cables throughout the Middle East for over 50 years, the company plans to extend its reach to neighboring GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
