Egypt note
BNC says it covers 72 countries across the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, but none of the pages readable in this check named Egypt or listed Egyptian projects. Ask BNC for a sample of its Egyptian project coverage before paying for a subscription.
MadeInEgypt
Tier F ยท Reputation warningFree directory of Egyptian suppliers and brands, with a small construction-materials section
โ The site labels its listings Verified, but its own disclaimer says it does not verify every listing and makes no warranties about the accuracy or legitimacy of listed companies. It names no operating company, and disputes go to binding arbitration in Orlando, Florida, USA.
MadeInEgypt.com is a free directory of Egyptian B2B suppliers and retail brands; it claims 354+ B2B suppliers across 12 industries, and its construction category lists 21 companies covering cement, steel, glass, gypsum, tiles, waterproofing and marble. The site says browsing, contacting suppliers and listing a business are free, with no commissions. It is a supplier-discovery directory, not a source of project leads.
Pros
- + Free to browse, contact suppliers and list a business
- + Construction category covers cement, steel, glass, gypsum, tiles and marble
- + Site says no pay-to-rank and no commissions
- + Suppliers in 12 industries beyond construction
Cons
- โ Construction section is small (21 suppliers)
- โ Disclaims verifying every listing despite Verified badges
- โ No named operator or address
- โ Mixes contractors with materials makers
Egypt note
A free starting list of Egyptian building-materials makers (cement, steel, glass, gypsum, tiles, marble), but check each supplier yourself: the site's own disclaimer says it does not verify every listing.
