We believe that food is humanity's strongest bond. It plays on all your senses and can take you to places you’ve never been. We have always treated food as an experience, which is why our goal is to ensure that what we offer is food for the soul. Our story begins in 2006 when our founder, Jalal Abu-Gazaleh, was supplying top-tier 5-star hotels all over Cairo with premium meat and seafood. After introducing an unprecedented quality of Australian beef to the Egyptian market, it became clear there was a hunger for such products amongst the Cairo community. We made customer satisfaction the root of our mission to revolutionize the way people shop for their groceries, making it less of an errand and more of a joyful journey. Located right off Maadi’s Ring Road, Gourmet Egypt opened its doors in 2008 where everyone could start shopping for all the delicious products curated from around the world that were simply unavailable in mainstream retail shops. Our portfolio ranged from Italian & French farmhouse cheeses to authentic pasta, condiments & Asian fusion. After nearly 10 years of experience in premium food retail, Gourmet Egypt became synonymous with quality & excellence. When importing restrictions began in 2015, we knew that trouble was on the horizon. As a customer-centric business, our top priority is to maintain our long-established standards and ensure that our quality is not sacrificed. The Handcrafted by Gourmet journey was then established with two production facilities equipped with talented, passionate chefs turning every household’s favourite recipe; from soups, salads, bakery and a wide range of convenient ready-to-cook and-eat meals. The portfolio grew to include fresh & frozen items, made with the finest local & imported ingredients. Going local opened a whole new world for us. We are proud to say that we encourage local businesses and over the last years we have collaborated with many of them to produce an exclusive range of products. Now at Gourmet Egypt, our customers can shop and support high-quality local brands ranging from health & beauty to kitchenware and everything in between.
