Project Egypt, The Ideal
Platform to Meet with
Decision Makers from
Egypt and other African
Countries in One Place
Embracing Egypt’s strategic geographical location as an
ideal platform to access neighboring African markets,
the Egyptian government is seeking to enhance its
position as an international business hub for the African
continent, by bringing together decision-makers and
standard setters in the construction sector from all over
the world, to boost technology transfer and exchange
expertise while meeting the challenge imposed by
Egypt’s large-scale projects.
To meet the demands of Egypt’s new burgeoning
expansion, Project Egypt, The International Trade
Exhibition for Construction Technology, Building
Materials & Equipment for Egypt and Africa, held from
February 11-14 2016 at Cairo International Convention
and Exhibition Centre (CICC), will host prominent
building material and equipment manufacturers from
around the world, to showcase their latest technologies
and innovations and help fulfil Egypt’s need to meet the
enormous construction demands through creative and
efficient solutions.

Construction Sector in Egypt
Growing Needs Build Growth Momentum
With a GDP of more than USD 270 billion and a population of more than 90 million, Egypt has always been an important
market, where construction is one of the most active sectors of the economy accounting for 15% of GDP. Following a
period of low growth, the sector is picking up momentum with an increasing demand for infrastructure projects, social
housing to cope with the increasing population estimated at 2.5% annually, and active demand for office spaces by
international customers.

A Gateway to the African
Construction Market
Located in the northeast corner of Africa, on the Mediterranean and
Red Sea, Egypt is a country marked by its strategic geographical
location in the center of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region,
which constitutes an 800 million people market. Besides being the main
gateway to the whole African continent, Egypt’s ideal location grants it
distinct access to key global markets in Asia and Europe. Egypt also enjoys the
existence of the Suez Canal, making it the hub for the world’s maritime traffic with
other commercial ports on the Mediterranean and Red Seas.
Egypt is signatory to many regional and international free trade agreements which
reduce or wave completely the custom duties on exported or imported goods, and
provide access to large key markets, securing benefits to Egyptian-based producers and
re-exporters supplying these markets.

Egypt
Promising Stability Raises Growing Hopes
The improved political and economic stability in Egypt has created new confidence. Economic growth has recovered on
the back of fast-rising government consumption and a pick-up in investment. The government is planning notable fiscal
reforms which are likely to regain investors’ confidence. Overall, the Egyptian economy has shown signs of recovery
in recent months, and IMF expects growth to rise from 1.8% in 2013 to 2.8% in 2014, and to 4% thereafter, as the
Egyptian economy increasingly modernize, with the private sector taking a more dominant role.
