Meantime, NES team was successful to complete the transfer and issuance of about 500 EUROCERT certificates in the last three months retaining all major clients and large corporate groups in Egypt, and even adding new clients with a total of 50 certificates to continue the list of success partners for NES in retaining the names of the top institutions, bodies and corporate groups in Egypt such as the factories of the ARAB ORGANIZATION FOR INDUSTRALIZATION and the groups of EL ARABY, EL SEWEEDY, BAHGAT, PEPSICO Egypt, SAMSUNG As well as major car manufacturers such as MERCIDES, BMW, GHABOUR and others.
