Gahez Market

What Gahez Market does

Gahez Market is an Egypt-based B2B e-commerce fashion marketplace founded in 2021, headquartered in Sheikh Zayed (Gîza), Egypt, with 51-100 employees. The company operates a Shopify-powered online storefront, gahezmarket.com, that directly connects fashion retailers with manufacturers and suppliers, eliminating intermediaries in the wholesale fashion supply chain. Its catalog spans men's, women's, unisex, and kids' categories including clothing (t-shirts, jeans, pants, dresses, abayas, sportswear, homewear, swimwear), shoes, bags, and accessories, with individual product prices ranging from approximately $3.80 to $138 USD, bulk pricing tiers, cash discounts of 2-9%, and free shipping for orders exceeding $5,000.

The platform supports a hybrid B2B/B2C model: the primary segment is fashion retailers and shops (boutiques, clothing stores) sourcing wholesale goods directly with delivery to their stores; the secondary segment is individual consumers purchasing fashion items through the same storefront. Gahez serves seven markets — Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, Libya, and Sudan — with multi-currency support (USD, EGP, SAR, SDG, AED) and Arabic-language localization, indicating a regional MENA/Africa roll-out strategy.

Revenue is generated through marketplace/transaction-fee mechanics on facilitated wholesale purchases. In January 2022, Gahez closed a $2 million pre-seed funding round led by Disruptech Ventures with participation from Egypt Ventures, Tanmeyah, Afropreneur Fund, and angel investors, earmarked for technology development and African market expansion. Distribution is exclusively online via the company's own Shopify storefront, supplemented by organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn) for top-of-funnel retailer and consumer acquisition.

Direct peers

• Ankorstore: European B2B wholesale marketplace for independent retailers and brands spanning fashion and lifestyle categories. Comparable in connecting retailers with manufacturers/brands at wholesale prices with marketplace monetization.
• Faire: Wholesale marketplace connecting independent retailers with brands across categories including apparel and accessories. Comparable B2B marketplace model with transaction-fee economics, though primarily serving North American and European SMB retailers rather than emerging markets.
• Joor: Global B2B wholesale fashion marketplace connecting brands and retailers. Most directly comparable to Gahez in product category (fashion wholesale) and two-sided marketplace model, though operating at global scale rather than MENA/Africa focus.

Regional players

• Brimore: Egyptian B2B commerce and distribution platform enabling brands to reach consumers through a network of resellers. Comparable regional B2B distribution thesis, although Brimore focuses on consumer-brand-to-reseller rather than manufacturer-to-retailer.
