01 Seeking New Opportunities: The North African Market Holds Great Potential
Egypt, the natural hub of the Asian and African continents, not only forms the core passage connecting the three continents of Europe, Asia, and Africa but also occupies a strategic high point in the global trade pattern. The Suez Canal, a vital artery, is an economic landmark of special significance. As one of the top five busiest waterways in the world, it carries 7% of the global maritime trade volume and its radiation scope covers the three major economic regions of North Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. Its unique geographical advantage has always made Egypt a "place of strategic importance."
In recent years, Egypt's development has shown unprecedented vitality, with a strong economic recovery momentum. Since Egypt signed the Belt and Road Initiative in 2016, the trade volume between Egypt and China has increased to approximately $20 billion, and China has long been one of Egypt's most important trading partners and sources of investment.
Under the in-depth interaction between the Belt and Road Initiative and Egypt's "Vision 2030," Egypt is releasing more market opportunities: the demographic dividend is driving explosive demand; the goal of achieving 42% renewable energy power generation by 2035 is spurring an investment boom in the photovoltaic and energy storage industries; government infrastructure construction is boosting the recovery of the tourism industry, with a 60% increase in Chinese tourists to Egypt...
Facing the great potential of the North African market, how should Chinese enterprises precisely seize the strategic opportunities?
How to build a regional development fulcrum based on Egypt and effectively break through the existing business bottlenecks?
Driven by both consumption upgrading and infrastructure expansion, what explosive growth opportunities exist in the fields of intelligent manufacturing, new energy, and bulk trade in the Egyptian market?
Facing the barriers of cross-border payment, legal compliance risks, and the challenges of supply chain localization, what strategies should enterprises adopt to break the deadlock?
In response to the above concerns of overseas enterprises, the China Enterprises International Service Center will host the event "Sailing on the Maritime Silk Road, Creating a New Future" - China-North Africa (Egypt) Bilateral Investment Themed Event on June 13, 2025. Mr. Iman Hussein, the Minister-Counselor of the Consulate General of Egypt in Shanghai, several outstanding overseas enterprises, and professional service providers will be invited to jointly decipher the core challenges for Chinese enterprises entering the Egyptian market.
From the banks of the Nile to the banks of the Qiantang River, an investment dialogue spanning 8,000 kilometers is about to begin!
