History

Kaduqli came under Egyptian rule in the early 19th century and was probably a centre for recruiting slaves for the Egyptian army. It is now a trading centre for gum arabic and livestock. Industries include textiles, soap factories, and the production of leather. Kaduqli is also the Headquarters of Sector IV of the UNMIS (United Nations Mission in Sudan). The sector IV HQ houses the Egyptian Contingent and also includes the Indian Aviation Contingent, flying MI-17 helicopters.
