Counterfeit Imported Gold Bars Seized in Egyptian Markets

Waleed Farouk In a striking incident that highlights the risks of trading in unverified precious metals, Egyptian security authorities—working in coordination with several local gold traders—have apprehended an individual in possession of counterfeit imported gold bars that he attempted to pass off as genuine within the local market. The incident took place when the suspect approached a gold jewelry shop in Nasr City, Cairo, offering a batch of gold bars that appeared, at first glance, to meet standard specifications in both weight and appearance. The man claimed the bars had been imported from abroad. However, during a routine technical examination using precision measurement and calibration tools, the dealer discovered that the bars were in fact made of copper, coated with a thin layer of gold to mimic the look of solid gold. Upon confirming the fraud, the dealer immediately alerted the authorities, who arrived at the scene promptly. A formal police report was filed, and the suspect was taken to the police station for questioning and legal proceedings. Commenting on the matter, Abdel Aal Salima, Deputy Head of the Gold Division at the Kafr El-Sheikh Chamber of Commerce, told "Eyar 24" that buyers and traders must exercise extreme caution when dealing with unverified sources, especially amid a rise in fraud cases driven by soaring gold prices both globally and locally. He further called for stricter customs and technical oversight on imported precious metals—particularly gold bars—to ensure compliance with standards set by Egypt's Assay and Weights Authority. A security source confirmed that investigations are ongoing, with efforts underway to identify other members of a potential network behind the smuggling of these fake bars into the market. Preliminary findings suggest a coordinated attempt to flood the Egyptian gold market with substandard products, aiming to exploit the growing demand for gold as a safe investment haven. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean

Fertiliser manufacturers stay positive - Economy - Al-Ahram Weekly

Fertiliser companies are considering the use of oxygen in combustion processes to reduce gas consumption, in addition to increasing reliance on carbon dioxide recovery for use in ammonia production, Khaled Abul-Makarem, chairman of the Chemicals and Fertilisers Export Council (CEC), told Al-Ahram Weekly. The move follows the Ministry of Petroleum's announcement that it is activating its emergency supply plan after the suspension of gas imports from the east of the Mediterranean. Natural gas is a raw material in the production of nitrogen fertilisers, accounting for more than 70 per cent of inputs, according to Abul-Makarem. Egypt imports around 800 million to one billion cubic feet of gas daily from Israel's Tamar and Leviathan fields under a 15-year agreement to help cover its gas deficit of 3.5 billion cubic feet. The two Israeli fields suspended production for a few hours after the beginning of the reciprocal attacks between Iran and Israel. Egypt's fertiliser factories are currently operating at partial capacity depending on the amount of gas available to each plant and leading them to schedule production more carefully and minimise waste, Abul-Makarem explained. There is ongoing communication with the Ministry of Petroleum to ensure the delivery of the minimum supply required for production, he added. On Saturday, Prime Minister Mustafa Madbouli said that this year Egypt will host three floating storage regasification units (FSRUs) for liquefied natural gas (LNG). He emphasised that this is not a result of the recent Iranian-Israeli conflict but rather the outcome of efforts that began more than six months ago, according to a cabinet statement. Following last summer's supply crisis, promises were made to develop a comprehensive five-year solution. In June 2024, the country's fertiliser factories faced gas shortages that led companies like Abu Qir Fertilisers to shut down its three plants due to shortages in the natural gas supply. Madbouli confirmed that by July this year Egypt will have three LNG regasification vessels injecting gas into the national grid to meet the country's needs and not only to handle high summer consumption but also to support industrial demand. He added that LNG regasification is a transitional solution. As Egyptian gas production stabilises and increases, the government plans to gradually phase out dependence on regasification vessels, he said. The government had responded to the recent crisis more effectively due to lessons learned over previous months, Abul-Makarem said. Local consumption of fertilisers ranges between five to six million tons annually, he added. Domestic factories meet most of the local demand, especially for nitrogen fertilisers, and there is only minimal reliance on importing certain compound and potash fertilisers that are not produced locally, he added. About 35 per cent of fertiliser production is consumed domestically and the rest is exported, Abul-Makarem said. France, Italy, and Spain are among the main European importers of Egyptian fertilisers. In Africa, the key markets include Kenya, Sudan, and Ethiopia. In Asia, Egypt exports to India, Bangladesh, and Turkey, while Brazil and Mexico are the primary markets in Latin America. If fertiliser prices rise in the local market, this will increase the cost of food production, in addition to directly affecting agricultural and food industries tied to crop production, Abul-Makarem warned. He added that rising prices will also increase the pressure on the government to subsidise fertiliser prices or reallocate export priorities to serve the local market. He said that the current gas crisis has opened the door to a black market for fertilisers, with some traders exploiting the situation by stockpiling them and inflating prices. However, the government is working to counter these illegal practices, he added. He explained that exporters are now negotiating with clients to reschedule delivery dates and reprioritise production for stable, long-term markets, while also negotiating with shipping and insurance companies to reduce the impact of rising costs. He added that if gas supplies return to normal, the factories will work to compensate for the recent shortages by aiming to match or exceed last year's export revenues, which reached about $3 billion. Sherif Al-Gabali, chairman of the Chamber of Chemical Industries at the Federation of Egyptian Industries, told the Weekly that factories will benefit from the current halt by conducting maintenance on their production lines. He explained that the crisis mainly affects nitrogen fertiliser production, which is produced by around six factories. Al-Gabali anticipates that natural gas levels will return to normal next month, which will restore production to its normal levels and positively impact the Egyptian economy. * A version of this article appears in print in the 26 June, 2025 edition of Al-Ahram Weekly Follow us on: Facebook Instagram Whatsapp Short link:

Egypt Nears Sugar Self-Sufficiency with Major Boost in Domestic Production

Ahmed Emam Egypt is making significant strides toward achieving self-sufficiency in sugar production, thanks to government-led efforts to expand the cultivation of sugar crops and support associated industries. The Egyptian Cabinet's Information and Decision Support Center (IDSC) published a series of infographics detailing the progress on its official social media platforms. The campaign highlights a broader national strategy aimed at maximizing agricultural output and optimizing the use of available resources to boost food security and stabilize domestic markets. According to the data, sugar beet cultivation has increased by 25%, with cultivated land expanding from 600,000 feddans in the 2023/2024 season to 750,000 feddans in 2024/2025. This is expected to yield 2.5 million tons of sugar, up from 1.5 million tons the previous year. For the first time in Egypt's history, sugar production is projected to reach 2.6 million tons in 2025, compared to 2.3 million tons in 2014. The outlook is even more optimistic for 2026, with forecasts predicting a rise to 2.9 million tons. The government's efforts have already shown results in reducing imports. Egypt's raw sugar imports dropped by 54.5% in the first quarter of 2025, falling to \$111.1 million from \$244.4 million during the same period in 2024. The data also revealed that Egypt achieved 81% self-sufficiency in sugar as of March 2025. Authorities anticipate that sugar imports will no longer be necessary by early 2026. Current government-held stocks of subsidized sugar are sufficient to meet national demand for 13 months. In terms of infrastructure, Egypt now boasts eight major sugar beet processing factories. Among them is Canal Sugar, the world's largest single-line beet sugar factory, which currently has a production capacity of 350,000 tons and plans to increase this to 750,000 tons by 2026. Other key facilities include the El Sharqiya plant in New Salhiya City with a capacity of 240,000 tons, and the upgraded Delta Sugar factory, whose capacity has risen from 14,000 to 21,000 tons of beet per day. The government is also investing in enhancing the productivity of sugarcane. This includes the establishment of seedling production stations like Wadi El-Saaida, which will supply 160 million seedlings per season, and the Kom Ombo station, with a capacity of 30 million seedlings per season. To further incentivize sugar crop cultivation, the government allocated EGP 16 billion for sugarcane purchases in 2025, and EGP 7 billion to cover industrial operations. Reference prices have been set at EGP 2,500 per ton for sugarcane and EGP 2,400 per ton for sugar beet at a sweetness level of 16%. Additional incentives include an early harvest bonus starting at EGP 200 per ton for beet farmers. Sugarcane farmers whose yield exceeds 30 tons per feddan will receive a bonus of EGP 50 per ton, while those exceeding 40 tons per feddan will receive EGP 100 per ton. These initiatives represent a cornerstone of Egypt's strategic plan to secure essential food commodities, reduce import dependency, and reinforce agricultural sustainability. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
