The invested initiatives include expanding GE’s work force in the nation from 2,000 to 4,000 by 2020 and to extend its Saudi supplier base to build a strong Saudi supply chain that supports GE’s local manufacturing plants.
“GE enjoys a strong history in Saudi Arabia of over 80 years of operation, and we are a partner that has invested in the long-term growth of the nation,” stated the company’s chairman and chief executive officer.
