# The 32 largest family-owned companies in Egypt

Tamtam tracks 32 family-owned companies headquartered in Egypt. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by GB Corp, Saudi German Hospital Egypt and Mansour Group. Their median headcount is 405. Half of them were founded in 1989 or later. The most common headquarters are Cairo (13), Alexandria (2) and Giza (2).

These Egyptian family-owned companies are mostly established businesses, with some tracing their origins back to the mid-20th century or earlier. Industries represented include manufacturing, real estate, and retail. GB Corp, founded in 1940, operates in motor vehicle manufacturing, while Mansour Group is a multinational conglomerate with diverse interests. Hassan Allam Properties specializes in real estate development, and Kandil Steel, established in 1865, manufactures various steel products.

The companies on this list are predominantly headquartered in Cairo or its surrounding areas, including New Cairo, Giza, and Maadi. This suggests a concentration of major family businesses within the greater Cairo region. A mix of sectors is also apparent, from the hospitality services of Red Sea Hotels in Hurghada to the food and beverage production of Lamar Egypt.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 14, 2026.
