Cairo, Egypt, November 5th, 2025, FinanceWire
Egy Salt for Salts and Minerals S.A.E., headquartered in Egypt’s Tenth of Ramadan City, has expanded its operations under the leadership of Founder and CEO Eng. Moustafa Fawzy Dawoud. Within less than a decade, the company has evolved from a local producer into a manufacturer of refined salt and minerals, contributing to Egypt’s shift from primarily exporting raw salt to supplying high-purity, internationally certified refined salt to global markets.
“From day one, our goal was simple: to prove that Egyptian manufacturing can compete at the highest global standards. Innovation and national pride are at the heart of everything we do,” said Eng. Moustafa Fawzy Dawoud, Founder and CEO of Egy Salt.
Raising the Bar for Egyptian Industry
Under Dawoud’s leadership, Egy Salt has achieved a level of industrial precision and credibility rarely seen in its sector. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 22000, and FSSC 22000 certifications, along with the “Proudly Made in Egypt” national mark, official recognition of its quality and reliability.
Egy Salt is also among only three factories nationwide listed by the National Food Safety Authority (NFSA), a distinction given to Egypt’s most compliant and trusted producers.
Today, Egy Salt exports refined edible salts (iodized and non-iodized, 99.3% purity), industrial grades, and specialized block salts to nine countries, including the UK, Malta, Lithuania, and Iraq, earning the trust of global clients and institutions.
Innovation That Transformed the Industry
Eng. Dawoud introduced Egypt’s first industrial block-salt production line, replacing traditional tablet salt used in water-treatment systems. This breakthrough lowered operational costs and improved efficiency for factories across the country.
The innovation gained national attention after being featured on Egypt’s television program “El Geda’an” with journalist Mohamed Ghanem, showcasing Egy Salt’s role in advancing local industrial technology.
Recognized for National Impact
Egy Salt has been recognized by the Egyptian Ministry of Health for its contribution to the national iodized salt fortification program, which combats iodine deficiency across Egypt.
The Ministry allocated 50 kg in 2023 and 925 kg in 2024 as national iodine quotas to Egy Salt for producing refined iodized salt. This recognition highlights the company’s commitment to public health and its leadership in manufacturing excellence.
Expanding Global Reach
Egy Salt is regularly selected by the Egyptian Food Export Council to represent Egypt in official national pavilions at global exhibitions such as Gulfood Dubai, Food Africa Cairo, Food & Beverage West Africa Lagos, WIE Tech Shanghai, and Anuga Cologne.
Its products are trusted by major corporations including Egypt Air, Givaudan, Halwani Ikhwan, El Doha Company, and Arma Group, reflecting Egy Salt’s reputation for reliability and high-quality production.
Building the Future of Egyptian Manufacturing
Beyond production, Eng. Dawoud plays an active role in supporting Egypt’s industrial ecosystem. Egy Salt is a member of the Federation of Egyptian Industries, the Egyptian Food Export Council, and the 10th of Ramadan Investors Association, reinforcing its commitment to collaboration and sustainable industrial growth.
Through measurable progress in economic, environmental, and technological development, Eng. Moustafa Fawzy Dawoud has positioned Egy Salt as a model of how Egyptian innovation can compete globally, setting new benchmarks for quality, efficiency, and national pride.
