PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Economic recovery and infrastructure growth to support expansion
Improved macroeconomic conditions and infrastructure development are expected to create favourable conditions for apparel and footwear specialists during the forecast period. As operating costs stabilise and new retail spaces open, brands will be better positioned to expand their physical presence.
Local garment manufacturing to anchor long-term growth
The first phase of Egypt’s national textile modernisation project was completed in December 2024 with the launch of Ghazl 4, the world’s largest textile factory under one roof. This initiative represents a critical step towards reviving Egypt’s once-dominant textile sector by maximising the use of Egyptian cotton, expanding domestic supply chains, and reducing reliance on raw cotton exports.
Market entry and digital innovation to fuel competitive intensity
The apparel and footwear retail landscape is expected to become increasingly competitive, with new entrants tapping into Egypt’s expanding economy and growing consumer base. UK-based All Saints launched its first standalone store in Egypt in September 2024, while Dior is preparing to debut its first dedicated outlet in the country.

DISCLAIMER
Apparel and Footwear Specialists
Apparel and footwear specialists are chained or independent retail outlets with a primary focus on selling one or more of the following categories: clothing, footwear, and/or fashion accessories (costume jewellery, sunglasses, belts, hats, gloves, handbags, scarves, etc.). Apparel specialists include specialty apparel like wedding dress shops. Example brands include Primark, TJ Maxx, and Zara. Sportswear retailers, such as Adidas and Nike, are excluded from this channel and are included in Sports Goods Stores; this is due to the companies considering themselves sports companies as opposed to apparel companies.
