In recent years, the Egyptian government has placed a strong emphasis on construction and infrastructure as a key driver of financial stability and urban growth. However, the coronavirus outbreak halted the progress of several projects in the country. While the private sector investment declined significantly, the government continued spending on construction activities of roads and bridges. As a result, the construction industry rebounded in the third and fourth quarter of 2020.
After a brief slowdown due to Covid-19, the industry is projected to grow steadily over the forecast period. In the short-term, investment in the construction industry will be largely driven by government spending in the infrastructure sector. Demand for housing construction is also expected to remain stable. Overall, despite the coronavirus pandemic, the medium to long term prospects for the Egyptian construction industry remain strong.
The residential sector is witnessing significant growth in the country. Increasing urbanization and higher spending power of the consumer are boosting the demand for the residential sector in Egypt. Private companies as well as the government have been investing heavily in the residential market in Egypt.
The government is also pumping liquidity in the residential construction sector in Egypt. The Egyptian government is building affordable housing and reconstructing slums for the citizens. This is one of the priorities of the current government to re-build and provide affordable housing to the overpopulated neighborhoods in the country.
While the commercial construction sector got affected due to the coronavirus outbreak, increased spending from both government and private companies has supported the industry. For instance, the El Batal Group's Rock Vera Plaza commercial project includes the construction of 100 offices and retail units in New Cairo. Moreover, the group has a land bank of another 100 acres for developing future projects in the country.
The New Urban Community Authority also intends to construct new cities comprising hospitals, shopping centers, schools, and entertainment facilities. Thus, providing support for the commercial construction industry in Egypt.
The government has continuously funded the development of infrastructure projects in the country - including roads and bridges. Even during the lockdown, the infrastructure construction activities were halted for only two weeks. Several infrastructure-related megaprojects such as the New Administrative Capital, New Alamein, and New Galala - have helped the construction sector recover from the slowdown due to coronavirus outbreak.
In addition to this, the government is planning to upgrade ports, transportation networks, and airports in the courts. It is also planning to build 14 new smart cities nationwide in the coming years.
