Finance minister reveals measures to help consumers benefit from 10% discounts

CAIRO - 5 August 2020: Finance Minister Mohamed Mait has unveiled new measures by which holders of ration cards could benefit from a presidential initiative meant to stimulate consumption. 

The initiative also aims to lift the burden on low-income citizens, who are given an additional 10% discount on all consumer goods offered for sale within the initiative, Ma'it said in a statement Wednesday. 


It should encourage all economic segments to purchase locally-made durable and non-durable consumer goods for a period of three months starting in August, he noted.


Mait touched upon a big demand by citizens to benefit from discounts whether through direct purchase or online on https://www.mobadra.gov.eg.
