The new SATEC textile factory under construction in Dondo, Cambambe municipality, northern Cuanza Norte province, as part of a public-private partnership around USD400 million have been spent on the construction works.

The chairman of the board of directors of the Angolan business group “Mainhia Yeto”, in charge of the work, Matos Cardoso released the information on Friday that the aforementioned amount was used in the construction of infrastructure and purchase of equipment for the project, expected to start next July.

The new textile plants being built under a Japanese private investment will be equipped with latest technology.
