The Journey
Kharafi National SAE was incorporated in 1999 as part of a carefully devised strategy for regional expansion in coordination with M.A.Kharafi’s (MAK’s) investment plans in Egypt and Africa. Since then it has became a key player in the EPCM and MEP market in Egypt.
During the early years MAK investments in Egypt were the main business focus. Accordingly, Kharafi National concentrated on projects related to the distribution of natural gas to consumers in Alexandria, Al-Salam and the Sixth of October City, and fast became the leading private contractor in terms of the number of customers converted to the use of gas for domestic purposes.
Kharafi National also participated in MAK investments in Marsa Alam town (Port-Ghalib) on the Red Sea, where the company executed most of the city’s infrastructure works including power stations, potable water and sanitary water treatment stations, and the district cooling plant. It also carried out the EPCM works for the airport and several hotels.
Kharafi National has also completed several other contracts with MAK such as Addis Ababa Airport, The Gambia Beach Hotel and Kharafi Hotel in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Kharafi National has expanded its market undertaking contracts with clients such as the American University in Cairo, the Marriot Hotel, NAT Gas, EMAAR, SODIC, NBE, and Ministry of Electricity (EAST DELTA CO.).
Building on the company’s growing reputation in Egypt and Africa for quality work, timely execution and costeffectiveness, Kharafi National has expanded its presence in the region by aggressively tendering for contracts with local and external clients.
