Deli Group, one of the world's largest companies in office supplies and stationery, has laid the foundation stone for its new factory in Egypt's 10th of Ramadan City during a high-level ceremony. This investment supports the company's strategy to expand global manufacturing and deepen regional presence, aligning with Egypt's efforts to localize industry and boost exports. The facility is expected to create jobs and strengthen regional supply chains.
Deli Group, which generates international sales exceeding $6 billion annually and operates in more than 100 countries, maintains an integrated ecosystem covering product design, research and development, large-scale manufacturing, and global distribution. The new investment in Egypt is part of its long-term strategy to expand the global manufacturing footprint and deepen presence in regional markets, aligning with Egypt's national efforts to localize industry, increase exports, and strengthen domestic production capacities.
The project is being built on a 160,000-sqm site, aiming to position Egypt as a major hub for manufacturing and exporting Deli products to Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. The company has already started local production at an existing 20,000-sqm facility that manufactures over 180 products for the Egyptian market. Once fully operational, the new factory is projected to achieve annual sales of around $200 million, supporting regional distribution networks, enhancing supply chains, and creating jobs.
During the ceremony at the construction site, attendees participated in the foundation-stone laying, followed by presentations on Egypt's manufacturing strategy, Deli's product-development plans, and the factory's role in serving neighboring markets. The event marked a significant milestone in Deli Group's global expansion and reaffirmed Egypt's appeal as a destination for major industrial investments. This initiative establishes a long-term partnership focused on strengthening local manufacturing, delivering high-quality products, developing technical capabilities, generating employment, and expanding Egyptian exports to new markets, thereby bolstering the Egyptian economy and solidifying the country's role as a regional industrial and export hub.
