Why Egypt
Where the Nile meets the world’s markets.
Egypt combines fertile, Nile-fed farmland with a location at the crossroads of three continents. It is one of the most established food exporters in the region.
- Nile-fed irrigation on fertile valley and delta soil
- Open-field and hydroponic farming
- Harvested and processed close to the farm, so produce is packed fresh
Harvests all year
A warm, dry climate and Nile irrigation allow several growing seasons a year, so supply doesn’t stop in winter.
At the crossroads
Mediterranean and Red Sea ports and the Suez Canal put Egypt on short shipping routes to Europe, the Gulf, Africa and beyond.
