Family businesses are legacies, and the heart of a vibrant Egyptian economy.

FAMILY ENTERPRISES

Local businesses employ “roughly 65-75%” of the Egyptian workforce and contribute “up to 80% to GDP by some estimates.”

We love family businesses. We understand their issues, challenges, strengths, and unique culture. We aim to help them succeed and transition seamlessly from one generation to the next.

FEKRA Consulting works with family companies at any stage of their life to support their business performance, to help them realize the full potential of being family-owned, and to help them avoid potential problems the company may face at later stages of its life-cycle. We do this by:

Formalization of Operations

Formalization of Operations

We help family-owned companies formalize their business strategies and enhance their strategic management processes.  We analyze, develop, and communicate the plans and create strong internal ownership of a clear vision for the future.  We also analyze the legacy and identify the areas most valuable for the company’s future, and areas that need improvement or divestment.

Generation Inclusions

Generational Inclusions

Generational gaps can create tension within the family, in the business, or both.  But, generational cooperation can empower the company for even better achievement and progress over the years.  At FEKRA Consulting, we have the ability to understand and relate to the first, second, and third generations in a business and work on inclusion and cooperation, while minimizing the tensions that might emerge between “old” and “new” schools of thoughts and styles of management.   

Maximizing Shareholder Value

Maximizing Shareholder Value

When we work with a family-enterprise, we aim to protect and enhance the value of the company through the outputs of our work and implementation of the future plans.  We also work with the current owners and senior staff to preserve the legacy of the founding generation, and build the pillars to ensure the continuity of the business during future transition to the next generation.
