Arclyn Developments Enters Egypt with EGP 20bn Investment Target

Egyptian-Emirati partnership plans three projects in the New Administrative Capital and unveils Metrova as its first development.

Arclyn Developments has officially entered Egypt’s real estate market through an Egyptian-Emirati investment partnership. The company combines regional investment capabilities with Emirati construction expertise and local market knowledge.

Through this partnership, Arclyn aims to establish a credible real estate development platform. Its strategy focuses on high-quality projects, strong financial foundations, and advanced execution capabilities.

The ownership structure brings together investors and partners from Egypt and the UAE. These include Sheikh Omar Al Marzouqi, Emirati Partner and Board Member, and Eng. Yasser Al-Prince, Chairman of the Board.

Together, the partners aim to combine their expertise and deliver distinctive real estate projects in Egypt.

Arclyn Developments Targets EGP 20bn Investment Portfolio

Arclyn Developments is targeting an initial investment portfolio of approximately EGP 20 billion in Egypt. The plan includes three projects in the New Administrative Capital.

These developments will form the first phase of the company’s expansion strategy. Meanwhile, Arclyn plans to explore further opportunities in East and West Cairo. It will also consider other strategic locations that match its investment objectives.

Sheikh Omar Al Marzouqi, Emirati Partner and Board Member of Arclyn Developments, said the company’s establishment reflects the UAE side’s confidence in Egypt’s market and long-term potential.

He noted that ongoing urban expansion continues to create investment opportunities. In addition, new development destinations are supporting the market’s growth.

“The Egyptian-Emirati partnership brings together Emirati expertise in construction, project execution, and management with Egyptian market knowledge and local expertise,” Al Marzouqi said.

“This combination enables Arclyn Developments to build a differentiated development model grounded in technical excellence, strong execution capabilities, and a long-term investment vision.”

Furthermore, Al Marzouqi said the company is selecting specialized strategic partners. These partners will support project management and other key development activities.

Arclyn has already secured agreements with established brands across several sectors. These partnerships will support the execution and operation of its first project.

• Metrova Marks Arclyn’s First Project in the New Capital

The New Administrative Capital represents Arclyn Developments’ first destination in Egypt. The company is preparing to launch Metrova, its first project in the MU23 area.

Metrova is a mixed-use development combining commercial, administrative, and hotel components. Its location allows the project to benefit from the capital’s infrastructure and urban planning.

Moreover, Arclyn views the New Capital as an emerging investment destination. Its evolving commercial and administrative landscape also creates opportunities for new real estate products.

Mohamed Wahdan, Chief Commercial Officer of Arclyn Developments, said Metrova represents the first step in translating the company’s investment vision into a tangible project.

He added that Arclyn will reveal the project’s full details in the coming period.

Wahdan also disclosed that the company has paid more than 80% of Metrova’s land value. According to him, this early payment ratio reflects Arclyn’s financial strength and commitment.

As a result, the company aims to establish clear financial, operational, and execution foundations from the outset. This approach is intended to support sustainable growth in Egypt’s real estate market.

Regus, Commerca, and Espresso Lab Join Metrova

Arclyn Developments has signed agreements with several established brands for its first project. These partnerships will support Metrova’s different components.

Regus has been contracted to support the accommodation of global companies within the administrative component.

Meanwhile, Commerca will attract leading brands to the commercial component. In addition, Espresso Lab will operate within the project’s hospitality and café component.

Through these agreements, Arclyn aims to build an integrated development supported by specialized brands. The partnerships also introduce operational expertise across the project’s different uses.

Yasser Al-Prince Highlights Financial Strength and Customer Trust

Eng. Yasser Al-Prince, Chairman of Arclyn Developments, said the company’s establishment reflects an investment vision. This vision focuses on bringing the UAE side’s accumulated expertise to Egypt.

However, Arclyn’s objectives extend beyond introducing new capital. Instead, the company aims to develop high-quality real estate products supported by strong execution and management capabilities.

“Credibility and trust are the foundation of the relationship we seek to build with our customers from the very beginning,” Al-Prince said.

He added: “Our financial strength, together with the significant portion of the land value already paid, reflects our commitment to investing in our projects and delivering them on solid financial and execution foundations.”

Accordingly, the company is focusing on financial discipline and technical expertise. It also aims to establish long-term relationships with customers through its project delivery approach.

DAK Construction Supports Arclyn’s Execution Capabilities

Arclyn’s entry into Egypt is also supported by the UAE side’s contracting expertise. This experience comes through DAK Construction, according to Eng. Fahd Derbala, General Manager of Arclyn Developments.

Derbala described DAK Construction as a Category A contractor in the UAE. He said the company has completed hundreds of projects of different scales, including buildings and towers.

“This depth of contracting and execution expertise strengthens Arclyn Developments’ technical capabilities and reinforces execution as one of the core pillars of our strategy,” Derbala said.

Furthermore, he said Arclyn is committed to advancing work on its first project at a strong pace. The company also aims to maintain construction progress that reflects its delivery commitments.

Looking ahead, Arclyn plans to build a diversified portfolio in Egypt. It will begin in the New Administrative Capital before expanding into other strategic investment destinations.

The company intends to leverage its project execution and management experience. In turn, this expertise will support the development of sophisticated real estate products that respond to market dynamics and customer needs.

An Egyptian-Emirati Partnership with Long-Term Expansion Plans

Arclyn Developments’ entry into Egypt combines regional investment capabilities with local market expertise. It also draws on specialized construction and execution resources.

With an initial target of EGP 20 billion across three New Capital projects, the company is beginning its expansion in one of Egypt’s emerging urban destinations.

Metrova will serve as the starting point for this strategy. The project brings together commercial, administrative, and hotel uses, supported by partnerships with established brands.

In the next phase, Arclyn plans to explore opportunities across East and West Cairo. It will also assess other strategic locations that align with its investment objectives.

Through this approach, the company aims to build a diversified real estate portfolio. Its long-term strategy centers on financial strength, project execution, and sustainable growth in the Egyptian market.
