The 25k sqm facility is designed to deepen the company\u2019s control over the value chain for its core products \u2014 dates, raisins, peanuts, sesame, and beans \u2014 replacing reliance on third-party facilities. The company is also exploring contract farming to secure the stable supply needed to feed its target of 30% annual export growth, he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Organic<\/strong><strong> funding: <\/strong>The company plans to finance the project entirely from its own balance sheet. This highlights a critical competitive advantage for exporters in the current climate \u2014 the ability to fund capex through USD liquidity, bypassing the prohibitive cost of bank borrowing that is currently stifling expansion for purely domestic players.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\"> State shareholders block Zahraa Maadi buyout bid over valuation gap<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>A consortium led by investors Ahmed Tarek Khalil and Mohamed Farouk Abdel Moneim <\/strong><strong>has hit a wall in their bid to acquire 90% of Zahraa Maadi.<\/strong> The company\u2019s majority shareholders \u2014 all of which are state-owned companies \u2014 rejected the EGP 6.95 per share mandatory tender offer, Zahraa Maadi said in a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2025\/12\/1150.pdf\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">disclosure (pdf)<\/a> to the EGX. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The why:<\/strong> The voting bloc, which together controls 53.9% of the developer, cited a \u201cfundamental and sharp disparity\u201d between the offer price and the company\u2019s fair value.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters: It\u2019s a reminder that state entities aren\u2019t going to exit real estate positions without a significant premium.<\/strong> The shareholders justified the rejection by pointing to a \u201crapid growth phase\u201d and the unrecognized value of the company\u2019s land bank and upcoming projects. The Sisi administration has long been clear \u2014 going back to the establishment of the Sovereign Fund of Egypt \u2014 that while it is willing to dispose of assets, it wants to do so in ways that give it a stake in any upside that a private-sector investor might generate. Think: Sell a small stake now, and monetize the rest later, banking on a better valuation. Institutional politics, including board members looking to preserve sinecures, have also stymied potential transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Titan Cement secures long-term energy hedge with EGP 500 mn waste infrastructure play<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Titan Cement is moving upstream into waste management to lock in a stable supply of <\/strong><strong>alternative fuel<\/strong>, signing a 15-year contract with the Sharqia Governorate, according to an Environment Ministry <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EGY.Environment\/posts\/%D9%88%D8%B2%D9%8A%D8%B1%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AA%D9%86%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%AD%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%A6%D9%85-%D8%A8%D8%A3%D8%B9%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84-%D9%88%D8%B2%D9%8A%D8%B1-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A6%D8%A9-%D8%AA%D8%B4%D9%87%D8%AF-%D8%AA%D9%88%D9%82%D9%8A%D8%B9-%D8%A5%D9%86%D8%B4%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D9%88%D8%AA%D8%B4%D8%BA%D9%8A%D9%84-%D9%A3-%D9%85%D9%86%D8%B4%D8%A2%D8%AA\/1240752241571521\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">statement<\/a>.
