NOWSHERA: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Economic Zones Development and Management Company (KPEZDMC) has established an industrial facilitation centre (IFC) at the Rashakai economic zone to provide services to industrialists and keep liaison with the relevant departments under one roof.

The centre was inaugurated by Abdul Kareem Khan, special assistant to CM on industries, the other day.

The IFC has been set up on the pattern of two facilitation centres already established at Peshawar and Gadoon industrial zones.

A separate desk has also been created to cater to the needs of industrialists. The IFC will receive applications from industrialists and directly coordinate with the government departments to reduce the time taken to complete a task.

The initiative will enable industrialists to focus on their industries, while KPEZDMC will cater to their needs regarding issuance of NOCs and issues with the utility companies and other government departments.

Abdul Kareem said top priority of the government was to bring investment to the province by facilitating the industrialists.
