Engineer Hanaa Garrana, Chairwoman of “Garrana Group,” stated that the company has successfully built a comprehensive industrial model over the past three decades based on quality, innovation, and continuous development
She emphasized that the group’s vision from day one was not limited to trade, but rather focused on establishing an Egyptian industry capable of competing regionally and internationally, while providing the market with competitive products carrying the “Made in Egypt” label

KEF Factory Expansion

She noted that the factory was established to deliver Egyptian-made products capable of competing with international brands in terms of quality and operational efficiency
According to Garrana, the factory succeeded in bridging the gap between locally manufactured and imported products through the production of durable, precision-engineered stainless steel kitchen equipment
The company’s expansion strategy extended beyond the domestic market. In 2023, the group opened a branch for kitchen equipment in Africa as part of a strategic move aimed at strengthening Egypt’s industrial presence across African markets
