The Egyptian Transport and Commercial Services Company S.A.E. was established in December 1973 under Egypt’s open door policy with regard to private enterprises. However, its transport activities and experience date back to 1939 as a continuation to GAMAL EL DIN LEHETA & CO.

EGYTRANS was nationalized in 1964 when it was one of the biggest companies in EGYPT offering shipping agency, tourism agency and other transport services. The company was originally established as a limited liability company with a capital of EGP 10,000. It is now a corporation with capital of LE 156,062,500 and annual turnover of LE 190 million. Since its inception it has grown into a true leader in the transport field in Egypt with three hundred and fifty employees and eight branches in strategic locations close to the country’s main ports, airports and transport centers.
