Shahawi Properties Overview

Shahawi Properties is the real estate development arm of El Shahawi Group, an Egyptian family-owned conglomerate founded in 1976. The group has operated for nearly five decades across multiple industrial sectors.

Beyond real estate, El Shahawi Group runs cement production, ready-mix concrete, marble production, and engineering contracting subsidiaries. This vertical integration shapes how the company approaches building its own residential projects.

Shahawi Properties focuses almost entirely on coastal tourism developments rather than urban compounds, with active projects on Egypt's North Coast and in Ain Sokhna on the Red Sea.

Track Record and Delivery History

Since 1976, El Shahawi Group has delivered a series of tourism and industrial assets across Egypt. In real estate, its flagship delivered project is Ein Hills Ain Sokhna, a 200,000-square-metre mountain-top resort handed over in Q4 2022.

The wider group portfolio includes hospitality assets such as the Mövenpick Ain Sokhna hotel and the Palm Islands project in Naama Bay, Sharm El Sheikh, alongside industrial subsidiaries Arabian Cement, Ready Rocks marble, and Premix Concrete.

That industrial backbone gives Shahawi tighter control over construction inputs and reduces its exposure to third-party material suppliers during build-out of large coastal projects.

Areas Served

Shahawi Properties currently operates in two coastal markets: the Mediterranean North Coast compounds and villages, and the Red Sea Ain Sokhna compounds.

This dual-coast footprint targets Egyptian buyers who want a summer home on the Mediterranean and a closer-to-Cairo winter retreat in Sokhna, a common pattern among Cairo-based second-home buyers.

Shahawi Properties Project Portfolio

The Shahawi portfolio on CompoundGate currently lists two active coastal projects, both large in plot size and positioned in established resort corridors.

Pali North Coast: Pali village on the North Coast sits at Kilometre 180 of the Alexandria–Marsa Matrouh coastal road, in Sidi Abdelrahman, around 35 km from Ras El Hekma. The village covers 75 acres and includes villas, townhouses, twinhouses, chalets, and cabin units.

Ein Hills Ain Sokhna: Ein Hills compound in Ain Sokhna is a 200,000-square-metre elevated resort that was fully delivered in late 2022 with finished units. It is the group's earliest fully handed-over real estate project on the Red Sea coast.

Why Buy from Shahawi Properties

The clearest edge Shahawi offers an Egyptian buyer is industrial integration: in-house cement, ready-mix concrete, and marble feed directly into its construction sites. That typically supports tighter finishing quality and steadier delivery timelines.

The Ein Hills delivery record backs that claim in practice. The project is built, handed over, and occupied, which carries more weight than glossy renders on a still-unbuilt phase from a less-tested developer.

For buyers searching for a coastal home backed by a developer with decades of industrial and tourism activity behind it, Shahawi sits in the more conservative end of the Egyptian developer spectrum, away from newer market entrants without a delivery record.
