Prime Minister Dr. Jaafar Hassan inaugurated six new factories owned by Jinsheng International in the Qatraneh area of Karak Governorate, marking the foundation of an integrated industrial complex in Qatraneh that will create 700 job opportunities for residents of the governorate and neighboring communities. The Prime Minister also directed the relevant authorities to proceed with the necessary measures to designate the industrial complex as a development zone, paving the way for further investment expansion.
The Chinese company has benefited from the incentives and advantages provided under Jordan’s Investment Environment Law, in addition to government support measures that included securing the company’s electricity requirements and initiating the construction of a power substation valued at approximately JOD 7 million. The substation will ensure sufficient energy supply for the operation and expansion of the company’s factories, provided that the company fulfills its commitment to create 2,000 jobs over the next three years.
The newly inaugurated factories constitute the nucleus of an integrated industrial complex in Qatraneh, following the company’s establishment of two factories in 2022, which currently employ around 830 workers.
Jinsheng International is a Chinese investment specializing in the manufacture of porcelain products, electrical appliances, stainless steel products, lighting equipment, sanitary ware, corrugated cardboard products, and other industrial goods. The company is currently completing the construction of three additional factories in Qatraneh dedicated to the production of glass, porcelain, and plastic products.
During the inauguration ceremony, the Prime Minister reaffirmed the government’s commitment to providing investors with the necessary support and facilitation measures. He also stressed that these investments will benefit from the incentives and advantages granted to Jordanian industry with the aim of enhancing its competitiveness in the domestic market.
The investment reflects the government’s broader approach and policies aimed at supporting investment and creating an enabling business environment, in line with the Economic Modernization Vision, which seeks to expand investment opportunities, stimulate economic growth, and generate employment opportunities for Jordanians.
The company’s total investments in Jordan since 2022 are estimated at approximately USD 830 million. The company is seeking to further expand its operations in the Kingdom and currently owns two factories producing raw cardboard and steel in the King Hussein Bin Talal Development Area in Mafraq Governorate. It is also constructing another steel factory in Zarqa Governorate, which is expected to commence operations before the end of the current year.
The Chinese company has also benefited from Jordan’s extensive network of trade agreements with countries around the world. Around 60 percent of its products are exported to Arab countries, as well as Italy, Brazil, and the United States, with total exports reaching USD 60 million in 2025.
For his part, Wu Jianbo, Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of Jinsheng International Group, stated that Jordan offers an attractive investment environment thanks to its stability, investor-friendly legislation, strategic geographic location, and the government incentives and facilitation measures available to investors.
