Egyptian importers expressed dissatisfaction with the decision of the Ministry of trade and industry, saying that domestic steel production in Egypt could not meet the market demand, and steel enterprises could take the opportunity to manipulate the market price of products.

At present, the steel price in the international market is US $530 to US $540 per ton. Domestic steel prices in Egypt are expected to continue to rise

the import of iron and steel from Egypt was more than 1.1 million tons in 2015 and 1.8 million tons in 2016. In the first eight months of 2017, the import of iron and steel fell to 300000 tons, significantly lower than the level of the same period in 2016 (1.261 million tons)
