What Samad Misr does

Samad Misr – EGYFERT S.A.E (سماد مصر – إيجيفرت) is an Egyptian joint-stock company incorporated on October 8, 1997 under Egyptian Law 159/1981 and Law 95/1992, and listed on the Egyptian Exchange (ticker: egx:SMFR) since May 30, 2007. The company operates in the fertilizers and agrochemicals sector, with its corporate purpose covering the trading of fertilizers, agricultural chemicals and related raw materials; the manufacturing and packaging of solid and liquid (foliar) fertilizers; the production and trading of compound fertilizers, agricultural seeds and seedlings, animal feed, and agricultural produce; plus import/export and commercial agency activities. Headquartered at 32 El-Nour Street, Dokki, Giza, the company is reported to have 11-50 employees and authorized capital of 300 million Egyptian pounds with issued and paid-up capital of 48 million Egyptian pounds across 9.6 million shares (EGP 5 nominal value).

The company functions primarily as a domestic Egyptian agricultural-inputs trader and modest manufacturer, distributing products directly to farmers and agricultural businesses through single-country direct trading channels. Beyond its own manufacturing/trading operations, Samad Misr maintains a portfolio of equity stakes across the Egyptian fertilizer value chain: a 50% jointly-controlled subsidiary in The Arab Company for Sulphur and Mixed Chemicals (located in El-Alaa Village, Noubariya, Alexandria), plus minority holdings in PolyServe Fertilizers (7.7515%), Abu Zaabal Fertilizers and Chemicals (0.07016%), Misr Fertilizers and Agrochemicals (2.777%), and Egyptian Agricultural Investments and Projects (7.5715%). Revenue generation is therefore a hybrid of operating fertilizer sales (both manufactured and traded) and dividend/equity income from these affiliated companies.

Customer-facing operations are entirely focused on the Egyptian agricultural sector, with no disclosed international footprint beyond import/export agency capabilities. The company is regulated under Egyptian corporate law and reports adherence to corporate governance standards under Directors Center Board resolution 332/2005. The board consists of nine members including a non-executive chairman, an executive managing director, and three independent directors, with significant board representation by Medfert Egypt Investment (Midfert) and Egyptian Resources Company as major shareholder representatives.
