One compound management company can open the door to several communities.
How to launch
- Pick one district and one customer need.
- Secure a site with a building, business or community partner.
- Source lockers from us, another supplier, or retrofit existing ones.
- Configure services, pricing and access in the back office, then launch a pilot.
- Measure use and expand site by site.
Business set-up in Egypt
Companies are typically established through the General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI). Check licensing for your activity and compound management approval. This is general information, not legal advice.
Hot and dusty; shade or indoor sites are best.
