About Ethmar

A Cairo-based trading company with a long-term growth vision.

Our Story

Founded on Trade. Built for Growth.

Ethmar for Import & Export was established in 2018 by Mr. Hany Aziz in Cairo, Egypt. The company was founded with a focus on import and export of foodstuff products, serving traders, retailers, restaurants, and factories across Egypt.

Over the years, Ethmar has expanded beyond pure trading. The company has established supermarket operations, developed a restaurant business, and is actively building food processing capabilities through a factory project currently in development.

Today, Ethmar operates across foodstuff trading, retail, food service, and food processing — with a physical asset base that includes offices, commercial units, restaurant facilities, and land holdings.
