The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority issued a Mobile Device Manufacturing (MDM) authorization to Lucky Motor Corporation Limited for manufacturing of Samsung mobile devices in Karachi according to a press release issued by the telecom authority on Tuesday.

“The authorization to manufacture Samsung mobile devices in Pakistan is a landmark achievement and will further revolutionize the vibrant mobile manufacturing ecosystem in the country by ensuring presence of major local and foreign players in the market,” read the press release.

The PTA lauded the “conducive” policies of the government and its "endeavours" in Digital Pakistan.

According to the press release, the regulatory body has issued MDM authorizations to 25 foreign and local companies for the production of 2G, 3G and 4G mobile devices locally.

“Mobile devices manufactured by these companies shall not only be sold in the country but will also be exported to other competitive markets of the region and beyond,” it said, adding the device manufacturing plants would create new job opportunities and enable affordability of mobile devices for Pakistani users.
