Cairo Poultry Company S.A.E. has reported outstanding results for the first half of 2025, with consolidated net profit soaring to EGP 1.654 billion, up 46.8% from the EGP 1.121 billion earned in the same period last year. The performance underscores the company’s ability to navigate economic headwinds while maintaining cost discipline and operational efficiency.
Revenues climbed to EGP 7.882 billion, compared with EGP 6.799 billion in H1 2024, supported by strong consumer demand for poultry products, successful marketing initiatives, and increased production output. Earnings per share rose from EGP 2.34 to EGP 3.46, translating the growth directly into higher shareholder returns.
However, the picture was less favorable on a standalone basis. Net profits dropped to EGP 33.9 million from EGP 96.15 million a year earlier, while standalone revenues slipped to EGP 692.1 million from EGP 769.8 million. This contrast highlights that much of the group’s profit expansion stems from its subsidiaries and integrated operations rather than the parent company alone.
The groundwork for the strong half-year performance was laid early. In Q1 2025, Cairo Poultry posted double-digit revenue growth and even sharper gains in net profit, thanks to higher sales volumes, tighter cost management, and more efficient production processes. That momentum carried into the second quarter, sustaining the company’s upward trajectory.
A key competitive edge remains Cairo Poultry’s vertically integrated model, covering the entire poultry value chain—from breeder farms and hatcheries to feed mills, broiler operations, and processing facilities. This integration ensures consistent product quality, lower production costs, and resilience against market volatility.
Strategic partnerships are also fueling growth. Together with Cairo Feed, the company recently signed a franchise agreement with a major European agribusiness group. The deal grants exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute premium animal feed brands in Egypt and the Gulf, backed by advanced technical support, rigorous quality controls, and specialized training. Management expects the partnership to significantly expand market share and potentially double feed sales in the near term.
Looking ahead, Cairo Poultry is well placed to build on its strong performance in the second half of 2025. While standalone operations remain an area for improvement, the group’s scale, operational strengths, and market expansion initiatives provide a firm foundation for continued profitability and regional leadership in the poultry sector.
