“There is a robotic component that does a systematic check on quality. The quality control session is designed with a support laboratory.”

He said the factory will employ over 500 persons when operational. “Indeed, this is just one factory and the project engineer said currently, he has already employed 115 people on the site.

“So ultimately, by the time the factory begins production with all the automation that we have put in place for precision in terms of quality, every other thing is semi mechanical to allow the input of human beings.”
