Rock Developments Breaks Sales Records with Rock Green as Customer Trust Fuels 48-Hour Succes
Rock Developments has announced achieving record sales worth EGP 500 million in the first phase of its Rock Green project, just two days after starting to receive expressions of interest. This reflects the strong demand for the project and customers' trust in the company's name. Managing Director of Rock Developments Eng. Emad Doss said, 'The remarkable success we achieved in the first phase of Rock Green confirms the soundness of our strategy, which is built on the principle that our journey with our customers is, above all, a journey of trust. It also reaffirms that our commitment to delivering exceptional projects at competitive prices is what strengthens this trust.' He noted that the compound is distinguished by its strategic location, contemporary designs, and comprehensive services, attracting a broad base of customers seeking both a high-quality lifestyle and a secure investment. Spanning more than 85% of its total area, the green spaces are a key highlight of the project, which includes 466 units ranging from 116 to 236 sqm, along with 40 private villas. The development is being rolled out in three phases. Doss pointed out that the compound enjoys a prime location—just one minute from the Suez Road, three minutes from El Shorouk City, seven minutes from Madinaty, 15 minutes from Fifth Settlement, and 30 minutes from Cairo International Airport. It is also close to Belvedere School, the International Medical Center, and Royal Hospital. He highlighted that Eng. Parthina Doss, Board Member of Rock Developments, led the project's design, leveraging her academic background and extensive expertise in architectural design. The company moved forward with the launch only after ensuring every detail met the standards required to deliver a real estate product tailored to the target customer. Doss disclosed that this strong demand reflects the level of trust the Rock Developments name enjoys in the real estate market—a trust built over years of commitment, quality, and delivering projects on time. He concluded that this confidence has encouraged customers to invest in the company's projects, securing real value that blends exceptional design, a prime location, and competitive pricing. تم نسخ الرابط

WATCH: Belvedere Bobcats take bronze at national champs
It has been nine years since Vivien Botha, a former Springbok gymnast and educator at Belvedere School, introduced cheerleading as part of the school's sports programme. On July 3, the Belvedere Bobcats squad—made up of 19 learners, six of whom have earned their Protea colours—set off to Oudtshoorn. They were headed to compete against 10 squads in the 2025 South African Majorette and Cheerleading Association (SAMCA) National Championship and the International Cheerleading Union (ICU) African Championships. Polishing their routine and strengthening their base, the performers took time to chat with the Benoni City Times about the sport, its challenges and the squad that has become like family. Khanyisie Mhlamei (17) has been a proud member of the Belvedere Bobcats and Divas for the past year. The self-proclaimed 'dancer with two left feet' said she was drawn to the sport, hoping to master the rhythmic, pom-pom-swirling moves of cheerleading. 'It was difficult at first, but I spent hours breaking the routines down into smaller steps until I could complete them,' she said. 'The squad was incredibly helpful and patient, which gave me the confidence to step up.' The more muscular Xander du Toit (17) may appear better suited to a rugby field than a spongy flexi-roll mat, but his stature forms the base of some of the squad's technical aerial routines. 'I wanted to try every sport the school has to offer,' he said. 'I played rugby but wanted to be part of something a little more challenging. I joined the Bobcats a year ago and am enjoying every moment.' According to Gia Steenkamp (14), the squad's ongoing success—which included three golds and a silver at the recent provincial championships, along with the marks that qualified them for nationals—can be attributed to Botha's meticulous attention to detail. 'Despite her years of experience she has created a space for us to give our input,' she said. 'The choreography as well as the aerial stunts are a reflection of our personalities and ability.' Longest-standing member Sunel Foster (19) said the past six years have taught her the importance of absolute teamwork, as well as valuable leadership skills. 'Cheer brings people together,' she said. 'We have tons of fun, work hard and most importantly do things that not many are brave enough to attempt.' As the exhilaration of the national championships drew to a close, the squad celebrated earning two bronze medals—one for co-ed cheerleading and another for hip hop doubles.
