DISCUSSION 沟通内容

The company wholesales aftermarket parts for German makes — Mercedes, Volkswagen, BMW — to workshops in Nasr City and 6th of October, and runs two retail counters of its own. They currently buy genuine parts from Germany and re-exported stock via the UAE, and complain about high prices and replenishment cycles stretching to eight weeks. After hearing the product line they asked unprompted for an OE cross-reference list, whether neutral packaging is possible, and about batch consistency on brake pads and filters. They were explicit: certified replacement parts only, no unbranded loose stock.

Every call comes back
as a page you can read

Our Egyptian team places the call in Arabic and ask what you would ask: where they buy today, on what lead time, what minimum order they accept, which certificates they need. Once the call ends, the answers arrive in your console as a written summary in Chinese.

04 · FIELD VISITS 实地拜访

We show up in person —
the part nobody else does

Anyone can sell you a list of buyers — mostly old data lifted from directories, not market research done for your business in the real market. What moves a deal is somebody sitting in their office, opening your catalogue, answering their questions on lead time, certification and minimum order — then writing the whole conversation down for you.

Field visits need you to send 2 printed catalogues and business cards to our Giza office. Why?

An Egyptian buyer wants to see the original catalogue. It carries your factory's own name, address, phone number and website, so they know we are not selling them something made locally in Egypt, or another dealer's goods — but the products of your real Chinese factory. And because they can contact you directly, they can be sure NileDragon takes no commission: they pay only the price of the product. We show the printed catalogue in the meeting; afterwards the buyer gets the PDF through your own catalogue link, to read and forward whenever he likes.

SUMMARY 摘要

They supply three steel-structure projects in east Cairo. Fasteners currently come from a Turkish supplier on a six-week lead time. Grade 8.8+ and a 500 kg minimum were both acceptable; they asked for ISO 898-1 test reports and a CIF Alexandria quote, and plan a trial container in late September.

07 · CUSTOMS TARIFF 海关税则

The tariff isn't only the importer's problem —
it decides whether your quote wins

An Egyptian buyer doesn't pay your CIF price. He pays the landed cost: your price plus Egyptian duty, VAT and fees. The same product often enters duty-free from the EU, Turkey or the UK, while from China it pays the full rate. Work that out before you quote, and you know how big a price advantage you actually need.

8,790Egyptian HS codesImport duty, VAT, extra fees and clearance conditions for each one, looked up by code.
6,917codes duty-free for Turkish goodsUnder Egypt's trade agreements — and much the same for the EU, the UK and the EFTA states. Chinese goods get none of this; that is the price gap you need to know.
2,447codes need GOEIC approval before importApproval from Egypt's import and export inspection authority. Know it up front, so a buyer doesn't find out after ordering that the goods can't clear.
11.5%average import dutySome codes carry no duty at all. In the console you can filter by duty band and work out the charges directly.

The upshot: a quote about 5% cheaper can still land about 14% more expensive. Know that gap, and you know how to price and how to negotiate.

10 · QUESTIONS 常见问题

Six things suppliers ask first

No. The dashboard, the reports and support are all in Chinese: you write in Chinese and we answer in Chinese, with no translation tool in between. Egyptian company names and activity text are shown as issued, with a Chinese explanation where needed.

Because your catalogue is what makes an Egyptian buyer trust you. Our staff walk into the meeting with your printed catalogue and business cards, and because they carry your factory's own name, address, phone number and website, the buyer sees for themselves that you are a real Chinese manufacturer — not a local trader reselling, and not an Egyptian product. And with your direct contact details right there, the buyer knows NileDragon takes no commission from the buyer or from you: they pay the price of the product and nothing else, with no extra or hidden costs. After the meeting the buyer gets the PDF through your own catalogue link, to read and forward whenever he likes. After subscribing, ship 2 catalogues and business cards to our Giza office (133 Corniche El-Nile, Giza, Egypt) by FedEx or another courier — field visits are scheduled as soon as they arrive.

From market research done specifically for your product, on the ground in Egypt — not from directories, and not from old data scraped online. Our Egyptian team targets the industries and regions that buy your category and HS code, then checks each company one by one: is it really trading, does it already sell products like yours, how much does it buy, and who makes the purchasing decision. What reaches you are real customers with an established market presence who already buy your kind of product — not a list of maybes.

Console content closes. Your company profile, account page and support chat stay accessible, and everything returns the moment you subscribe. Nothing you saw during the trial is deleted.

Top up at any time: 100 calls for $50 5 visits for $100 Top-ups apply to the current month, and quotas reset on the first of each month.
