What Medgenco does
Medgenco is an Egyptian family-owned B2B industrial distribution company founded in 1969 by the El Kaissy family and headquartered in Cairo. It operates as a one-stop supplier of industrial equipment and raw materials to manufacturers operating across multiple heavy and light industrial verticals in Egypt.
The company's offering is organized across six product divisions: plastic raw materials, plastic machinery, petrochemicals, glass processing equipment, footwear manufacturing equipment, and printing & packaging equipment. It supplies branded machinery sourced from multinational manufacturers alongside raw material inputs, and integrates these into turnkey project deliveries that combine equipment, consumables, and engineering support for factory operators. Customers are industrial manufacturers — typically SMEs and mid-market producers — in the petrochemicals, plastics processing, glass, footwear, and printing/packaging sectors.
Medgenco runs a direct sales model with technical/engineering support bundled into equipment sales. Revenue mechanics are driven by unit margins on capital equipment and recurring raw material replenishment, with no disclosed subscription, licensing, or service-fee layer. The business is privately held under family ownership with no public funding history, an employee base in the 11–50 range, and no publicly stated revenue. Distribution relationships with international machinery and petrochemicals producers are referenced but specific partner names are not disclosed.
