Diversity in Egypt and different types of Egyptian companies

You can see the diversity in Egypt everywhere.

Egypt is well known for its high-quality sand, its beaches, its Nile river, its magnificent resorts, and for the metals beneath its grounds.

Also, Egypt is known too for its sun, wind and its renewable resources of Energy, for the fisheries, the agricultural crops, the exceptional rocks, the healing waters in Siwa, and known for a lot more.

Egypt had one of the strongest civilizations in the world before. Mainly because of the diversity in Egypt.

The fact that God has blessed Egypt with endless valuable resources has given Egypt that chance.

A chance of creating a civilization that still impacting not only Egypt but the whole world till today.

Egypt’s growth

Egypt is one of the fast-growing countries in the middle east, this is the main reason why investors worldwide choose Egypt as a country to invest in.

Many Egyptian businessmen prefer Egypt to invest in it too, as the nature of Egypt as a country makes of Egypt a very good option for fast growth and development.

The reason behind Egyptian businessmen investing in Egypt

The investment of rich Egyptian businessmen in Egypt causes a rise in the number of Egyptian companies.

The reasons for their investment in Egypt is not only because Egypt is rich in natural resources, and has diverse resources, but also for the easiness for the Egyptian businessmen to start a business in Egypt rather than any other country.

To explain it better,  its very hard for Egyptian businessmen, and Egyptian entrepreneurs to start a business in any other country than Egypt, but why?

Because of the very harsh regulations that face Egyptians outside their home country.

Different resources in Egypt

The Nile valley, and Delta that God has gifted Egypt with have been a source of agricultural growth in Egypt, and civilizations development, and nourishment.

Also the Egyptians land is resourceful with the natural gas, petroleum, gold, iron ore, and many other blessings.

We can not forget also the sun that shines all over Egypt all year long where its an exceptional source of solar energy.

Add to it, the Egyptian sun can on its own be able to run a lot of factories and be the reason of no longer depending on non-renewable energy sources.

Upon talking about the renewable, and non-renewable energy sources we must not forget the winds in the Egyptian deserts, and how windmills can also help to stop using a lot of the non-renewable energy sources.

And we should never forget the nuclear energy Egypt can make use of, but how?

The black sand in Egypt in the Mediterranean coast bears a whole lot of uranium, so Egypt can make its own nuclear reactor, and be one of the most developed countries with a little more of investment in its natural resources.

And have you heard of an Egyptian city named Siwa?

Siwa is well known for its salty lakes, the saltiness in Siwa waters are extremely high causing the healing effect that many tourists search for, and add to it the detoxifying salty lakes.

Endless resources can be found in the Egyptian land, and being that rich is a reason for why always Egypt has been a target for invaders.

Not to mention also the manpower in Egypt, which was also always a strong reason for investors whether Egyptian or foreign to invest in Egypt.

Egyptian companies growth

The Egyptian companies are blessed to be located in Egypt, and that’s because of the many blessings we spoke of before in that article, and how the availability of the too many resources is an actual true asset for any company to start its business in Egypt.

Companies history in Egypt

Many Egyptian companies more than a hundred years ago in the reign of King Farouk and some of his ancestors were not yet nationalized, until the Egyptian revolution in “July 1952“.

After that, many Egyptian companies started getting nationalized, and the most important one of them was the company that was responsible for the Suez Canal in Egypt.

Foreign investors had the ability to re-own the companies again.

Since then, nationalization of the companies is not a must, and most probably that is because of the massive opening up for the Egyptian community, and the Egyptian economy.

What are the kind of companies, and businesses growing tremendously in Egypt lately?

Real estate business in Egypt

As stated more than once before Egypt is blessed, and one of Egypt’s blessings is the massive land Egypt has.

Egypt lies over 1 million cubic square of area. That gave the chance for many real estate investors to build more buildings and residential compounds.

The land used for investment is not only in the capital city of Egypt ”Cairo”, but all over Egypt.

The reason for so is that there is a change in the mindset of the Egyptian community; People no longer seek to reside by the Nile and searching for places to live in the capital.

Instead, now Egyptians are searching for residential compounds that can help them relax. They are searching to have all the necessary amenities by their side to save time and effort.

Real estate companies have noticed so, they have noticed the winds of change in the Egyptian communities.

Those companies really made very good use of that change. They started to create even a whole community with all the required facilities for the Egyptian people.

The food sector in Egypt and the diversity in Egypt

Two main reasons were beyond the flourishing of the food sector in Egypt.

The first is the increase in the Egyptian population.

What do you think is the second reason?

The second reason is the increase in cultural diversity in Egypt.

Opening up the Egyptian community had a great influence on diversifying the Egyptian taste.

Food manufacturing companies, and restaurants whether international, or local restaurants all have their customers.

Remember with the increase in people number and cultural diversity, there is an increase in the variability of peoples taste.

Automotive companies in Egypt

Automotive companies have really nourished in Egypt lately.

The reason beyond that is the increase in the number of people who purchase cars in Egypt.

The Egyptians are buying cars every day for mainly 2 reasons.

The first reason is the method of transportation.

But what is the second reason?

Yes, exactly a lot of Egyptians use their cars as a source of their income.

“Many Egyptians recently have been purchasing cars to work as Uber drivers because of the increased number of Egyptians looking for such services as those offered by Uber, and Uber-like companies.

But its worth mentioning that although the Egyptians purchase power was the reason to flourish the automotive industry in the recent decade in Egypt, recently Egyptians created a campaign in Egypt which started months ago under the name of ”let it rust”.

”Let it rust” is a campaign targeting greedy car sellers in Egypt.”

Those car sellers are selling cars in Egypt for way more expensive price than the car international price.

The tourism sector in Egypt

Tourism in Egypt is a powerful source for economy nourishment.

By getting to know some deserted places in Egypt that really attract tourists.

Startup companies in Egypt

Do you know that the number of startup companies has increased greatly in Egypt recently?

But why would the startups increase in Egypt?

The reason is the diversity of services required by the Egyptians.

Unfortunately, the Egyptian market still doesn’t serve all the needs of the Egyptians.

This gave the chance for many startups to fill in the gap.

Startups in Egypt focused on what’s missing in the Egyptian market. Worldwide delivery to Egypt is a very good example.

The worldwide delivery to Egypt is poor. A company known as “Edfa3ly” solved this problem.

 Wind energy industry

Investment in the wind industry in Egypt will be a very successful idea.

Egyptian winds by the Nile riverbank and the Suez Gulf area are powerful resources of energy.

That’s because the wind speed in Egypt has an average of 10.5 m/sec.

Hydroelectricity industry

River nile

Egyptian flowing waters are an excellent source of clean energy production.

Aswan low dam, Aswan high dam, and other Egyptian dams, and barrages are a very good source for hydroelectricity.

The agricultural industry in Egypt

Egypt relies on importing major agricultural crops like wheat, and corn from the united states of America, although, Egypt has many areas with very fertile soil that has not been used smartly enough yet.

The smart usage of the Egyptian fertile soil will help Egypt to reduce, and maybe eliminate the importation of agricultural crops.

So, to invest more in cultivating the right crops in Egypt is both crucial to Egypt, and has very high potential to succeed as an industry.
