Global Presence
Egypt Globe Group destination markets — Mediterranean, GCC, East + West Africa, South Asia, Far East, Mediterranean Europe, Americas. 60+ active export lanes from 7 Egyptian ports.
Egyptian exports — global reach
Egypt Globe Group shipments load from 7 Egyptian seaports and discharge in over 60 destination markets across five continents. The longest-running lane is salt — more than 2 million tonnes since 2015, the recent de-icing programme predominantly to EU destinations, with other cargoes to European and West African markets. Every lane runs on the same control model the group has operated since incorporation in 2014: a per-lot Certificate of Analysis issued by the port laboratory before B/L, independent inspection on buyer instruction, and destination conformity documentation prepared by the New Damietta documentation desk. For buyers mitigating global supply-chain risk, the lane changes; the way a cargo is loaded does not.
Egyptian loading ports
Port selection follows the source: sea salt loads closest to the North Sinai and Red Sea pans, rock salt from Siwa and Qattara moves through the Mediterranean ports, and Red Sea ports avoid the Suez transit for East African, GCC and South Asian destinations. Berth and loading detail is under Loading ports.
