Mabany Edris launches Ons New Zayed with EGP 13.5bn investment across 84 feddans
Mabany Edris has unveiled its latest project in Egypt's real estate market—Ons New Zayed—with a total investment of EGP 13.5bn. The development spans 84 feddans in New Zayed City, West Cairo, strategically located just minutes from the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), the Giza Pyramids, and the Sphinx. Its proximity to Sphinx International Airport further positions it near one of the world's most iconic tourist destinations.
Mohamed Idris, CEO of Mabany Edris, stated that the company collaborated with Alchemy Design Studio, a leading Egyptian design firm, to create the architectural concept for the project. The goal, he said, is to present an innovative residential product that adds tangible value to Egypt's real estate market.
Ons New Zayed will comprise 1,012 units of various sizes and configurations, including one-bedroom apartments, townhouses, twin houses, and villas. Apartment sizes will range from 60 to 200 square meters, while villas will span 160 to 297 square meters. The project will also feature serviced apartments intended for foreign tenants, and a hotel catering to New Zayed's emerging tourism potential.
In addition to its residential offering, the project will include a wide array of amenities and services, such as a social club, commercial and administrative buildings, sports courts, and a mosque.
Idris explained that Ons New Zayed will be developed in four phases, with residential areas accounting for no more than 15% of the project's total land area. All residential buildings will consist of a ground floor plus two stories, in keeping with the project's low-density planning approach.
The entire project is scheduled for completion within four years, with the first phase expected to be delivered to clients in 2029.
Discussing the company's broader investment strategy, Idris revealed that Mabany Edris plans to inject EGP 2bn in investments during 2025, including EGP 1bn earmarked for construction. Of that, EGP 200 million was already spent in the first quarter of 2025 to accelerate project execution and meet contractual obligations.
'Our target is to deliver no less than 300 units this year,' Idris said, adding that the company is currently negotiating to acquire more land in 6th of October City, East Cairo, the North Coast, and New Assiut. 'We will announce new project details soon,' he added.
Regarding its North Coast developments, Idris noted that the company has completed 30% of the first phase of its Koun project, located in Ras El Hekma. The project is progressing at a fast pace and is scheduled for delivery in 2027.
Koun spans 110 feddans and is located at Kilo 201 on the Alexandria–Marsa Matrouh Road. It includes more than 1,500 units, featuring various layouts—from one- to three-bedroom chalets, as well as townhouses, twin houses, and villas—to cater to a wide range of customer needs.
With over 25 years of experience in Egypt's real estate sector, Mabany Edris began as a construction and engineering firm before expanding into real estate development. Since then, the company has delivered a diverse portfolio of residential, commercial, administrative, medical, and industrial projects.

Egypt inaugurates first Bosch home appliance factory in Africa with €55m investment
Egypt's Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly inaugurated the first African factory of BSH, the German-owned home appliance giant behind the Bosch brand, marking a milestone in Egypt's industrial development and regional positioning. Located in 10th of Ramadan City, the factory represents the company's first manufacturing base on the continent, with a total investment exceeding €55m. The facility is expected to generate around 1,000 direct and indirect job opportunities, with 50% of its production designated for export to markets across Africa and the Middle East. Accompanied by key ministers and senior officials, Madbouly affirmed that Egypt's economic reforms and investor-friendly incentives have successfully attracted major global industrial players. The Bosch plant, he said, will serve as a strategic launchpad for regional expansion, leveraging Egypt's geographic advantage, skilled labour, and growing domestic market. Top executives from BSH Global attended the inauguration and praised Egypt's strategic positioning and the strong support extended by local authorities. Built over an 80,000-square-metre plot, the factory will manufacture more than 350,000 gas ovens annually using 100% Egyptian labour and German engineering expertise. The facility adopts a new BSH production model focused on integrating the local workforce rather than relying heavily on automation—an approach designed to capitalise on Egypt's labour cost advantage while upholding Bosch's global quality standards. This project aligns with Egypt's broader industrial strategy and vision to become a regional hub for manufacturing and export. BSH also confirmed its intention to expand the facility in future phases, further increasing production capacity and employment opportunities. Prime Minister Madbouly toured the production lines and met with workers, reiterating the government's commitment to supporting industrial investment, strengthening local supply chains, increasing exports, and facilitating technology transfer. In his remarks, Luis Alvarez, Chairperson of BSH Egypt and Morocco, explained that the decision to establish BSH's first African factory in Egypt reflects a long-term strategic vision. He highlighted Egypt's potential as a gateway to continental and regional markets and noted that the country is now home to BSH's 40th production facility worldwide. BSH operates 39 factories across Europe, North America, and Asia and maintains a presence in more than 60 countries. The new Egyptian plant is now a critical link in this global network and will serve as a springboard into emerging markets across the Global South. Designed with strict sustainability standards, the factory combines advanced infrastructure with local talent. BSH plans to export 50% of its output to the Middle East, Africa, Australia, Canada, and Latin America. Ahmed Riad, Executive Board Member and CFO of BSH Home Appliances Egypt, noted that the factory's 90 cm cookers were developed specifically to match Egyptian consumer preferences. The current local component ratio stands at 50%, with plans to exceed 70% within two years. He also revealed that BSH is exploring the possibility of expanding its product line beyond ovens and cookers, further strengthening Egypt's position as a regional manufacturing hub. Following the Bosch factory inauguration, Prime Minister Madbouly also opened Jumia's largest logistics warehouse in Egypt—a major development for the country's e-commerce and digital logistics infrastructure. Spanning over 27,000 square metres and equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, the new facility is designed to accelerate delivery times, enhance storage efficiency, and support Jumia's growing operations, particularly in Upper Egypt. It is expected to create approximately 10,000 direct and indirect jobs. The warehouse supports Egypt's goal to become a regional digital hub, aligning with Vision 2030 and national efforts to expand digital services, boost youth employment, and support tech-driven development. Minister of Communications and Information Technology Amr Talaat highlighted that the software powering Jumia's platform was developed locally by Egyptian engineers. Jumia Egypt CEO Abdellatif Olama emphasised the strategic importance of Egypt within Jumia's regional operations. The country hosts one of the company's largest tech hubs in Africa and plays a pivotal role in exporting digital solutions across the continent. He reiterated Jumia's commitment to enhancing Egypt's role in Africa's digital transformation and to supporting local manufacturing and logistics ecosystems.

MSMEDA disburses EGP 57.5bn in project funding over 11 years: CEO
Bassel Rahmy, CEO of the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Development Agency (MSMEDA), announced that the agency has disbursed a total of EGP 57.5bn in funding for micro, small, and medium enterprises from July 2014 to May 2025. This figure marks a substantial increase compared to pre-2014 levels and reflects the state's intensified support for the sector since President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi took office. Rahmy noted that this funding has contributed to the creation of more than 3.4 million job opportunities for Egyptian men and women, underpinning the agency's role in promoting employment and entrepreneurship nationwide. He added that 47% of total funding was channelled to governorates in Upper Egypt, aligning with the region's development priorities and financial needs. The announcement coincided with the celebration of World Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Day, held annually on 27 June. Rahmy highlighted the state's strategic commitment to supporting the small enterprise sector through comprehensive care, funding mechanisms, and the creation of an enabling environment that fosters the establishment and growth of industrial and productive projects. Since President Al-Sisi's inauguration, Rahmy explained, the state has launched numerous initiatives aimed at supporting citizens and encouraging them to embrace entrepreneurship and self-employment as a path to economic empowerment. These efforts reflect a deep understanding by the political leadership of the sector's critical role in driving economic development and industrial advancement. He emphasised that all relevant government bodies have worked in coordination to enhance the investment climate for small businesses, thereby maximising their contribution to the national economy. These efforts are in line with the directives of Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, who also chairs MSMEDA's Board of Directors. Rahmy also pointed to landmark progress in 2025, including successful cooperation with the Ministry of Finance and the Egyptian Tax Authority to implement Law No. 6 of 2025. The law addresses longstanding tax challenges for small businesses and introduces several key facilitations—most notably a simplified tax regime starting with a rate of 0.4% of annual turnover for businesses generating up to EGP 500,000, scaling up to 1.5% for those with turnover between EGP 10m and EGP 20m. The law also offers exemptions from stamp duties and other taxes. He affirmed MSMEDA's active role in integrating the informal economy into the formal sector through structured plans to regularise and legalise informal enterprises. These efforts are aimed at ensuring long-term project sustainability, improving productivity, and enabling access to the benefits offered under Law No. 152 of 2020 on Enterprise Development. The agency provides documentation and licensing services to help businesses operate legally, paving the way for them to access incentives such as marketing support and eligibility for the government's 40% procurement allocation to small enterprises. In the area of capacity building, Rahmy noted that MSMEDA has provided entrepreneurship training to more than 83,000 individuals. This initiative seeks to foster a new generation of skilled and capable entrepreneurs across Egypt. To enhance product marketing and commercial exposure for its clients, MSMEDA has organised 1,441 exhibitions featuring 32,492 project owners. These events generated total sales and contract values exceeding EGP 2.1bn. Rahmy concluded by calling on young people to take initiative by visiting the agency's branches across governorates or accessing its website to learn more about its financial and technical services. These services, he said, can support aspiring entrepreneurs in launching or expanding businesses across a wide range of sectors. World MSME Day was officially designated by the United Nations on 27 June following a proposal submitted by Egypt in 2016 via the World Association for Small and Medium Enterprises. The day aims to celebrate and recognise MSMEs globally as a fundamental pillar of economic growth and stability.
