Fitch Solutions forecasts revenues to reach a record high USD 13.6 bn this year, up 17.7% from 2022, according to a forecast picked up by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AsharqbEGY\/status\/1615010644213768192\">Bloomberg Asharq<\/a>. The research firm expects as many as 11.6 mn tourists to visit the country, up 46% from last year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tourism revenues have recovered from the pandemic:<\/strong> Tourists brought more than USD 4.9 bn into the country in the first half of 2022, up from USD 3.1 bn in the same period a year earlier, according to the most recently available central bank data. This came on the back of a surge in tourist numbers, which rose <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/e557433f-d8f5-4ade-939a-3b40b418dfbb\">more than 85% to 4.9 mn<\/a> during the six-month period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buoying the industry:<\/strong> The strong outlook for the industry comes on the back of the weaker value of the EGP and favorable market dynamics, co-head of research at CI Capital Monsef Morsy told Enterprise. Morsy projects revenues to increase to between USD 13.5 bn and USD 14 bn in FY 2023-2024. The EGP has tumbled against both the USD and the EUR since last March, making Egypt a significantly cheaper holiday destination for some foreign tourists.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The gov\u2019t wants to go much bigger: <\/strong>The Tourism Ministry wants to attract as many as 30 mn tourists to the country by 2028, Tourism Minister Ahmed Issa <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/b252d5fc-e5e3-41f9-a8ca-8c9cf8c17127\">said this week<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/37b4540a-9a64-4483-ab5c-d2cda507d0cc\">more than double the number<\/a> that visited the country in the year before the pandemic. The government plans to launch a new tourism strategy later this quarter to bring more people to the country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Might we suggest?<\/strong> As well as boosting the number of tourists we welcome each year, we could also be finding ways to increase the average spend per tourist by improving our product and positioning.
