Egypt Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2029 (Q2 2025)

Summary

GlobalData expects the Egyptian construction industry to grow by 6.5% in real terms in 2025. This will be supported by I increase in foreign direct investment (FDI), coupled with investment in oil and gas, industrial and housing construction. According to the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE), the country’s average construction production index grew by 9.2% year on year (YoY) in the first two months of 2025, preceded by annual growth of 6.9% in 2024. In March 2025, the government announced the fiscal year (FY) 2025-26 (July 2025 to June 2026) Budget, which includes total government expenditure of EGP4.6 trillion ($91.3 billion) for the FY2025-26. This represented an 18% increase compared to the FY2024-25 Budget expenditure. Furthermore, in April 2025, the authority of Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone) revealed that it has attracted and secured 272 projects across its industrial zones between 2022 and March 2025, totaling EGP418.2 billion ($8.3 billion).

The construction industry's output is expected to register an annual average growth rate of 7.6% between 2026 and 2029, supported by investment in commercial, renewable energy, and transport infrastructure projects, coupled with the government targets of developing 10GW of renewable energy projects by 2028 under the Nexus of Water, Food, and Energy Program (NWFE Program). The Egyptian government also aims to increase the share of renewable energy in the electricity mix to 42% by 2040, compared to 11.5% in 2024. In another boost to the industry, the government plans to develop 32 hydrogen plants, with a combined investment of EGP5.4 trillion ($107.2 billion) by 2030, to initially produce 3.2 million tonnes of hydrogen per year, further increasing to 9.2 million tonnes by 2040

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
