Last week, officials teamed up to lay out a 55 million-dollar industrial security printing plant at Bole Lemi Industrial Park. Partnering with Japanese multinational Toppan Gravity, the plant is expected to embark on passport printing, with over five million passports printed annually at full throttle. A major global printing industry with a 124-year legacy and over 10 billion dollars in annual revenues, Toppan brings its expertise to the project.
