Why Egypt?
Verticality
Because of Egypt’s long history in textile and garment manufacturing, Egypt has built up an infrastructure that allows for complete vertical integration. Here you can find most raw materials and accessories for clothing manufacturing in Egypt. This includes a wide range of fabrics,zippers, threads, labels, and packaging. This will greatly reduce your brand’s production lead time.
Geographic Location
Egypt is uniquely located as an integrated hub, linking world trade for Africa, Asia, and Europe. This makes logistics a more efficient process.
