The second highlights handicrafts and traditional arts that reflect authentic Egyptian craftsmanship. The third promotes afforestation, featuring the participation of numerous manufacturers and exporters specializing in a wide variety of tree species.

These products are offered by various entities, including the Ministries of Agriculture, Water Resources and Irrigation, as well as several governorates such as Cairo and Giza.

The initiative aims to showcase the skill of Egyptian artisans and their ability to create high-quality works that contribute to generating new job opportunities. The exhibition also features rare varieties of flowers, some of which are imported and cultivated locally in suitable greenhouses for resale and distribution.
