- Lecico Egypt S.A.E. is an Egypt-based industrial manufacturing company engaged in the production and global distribution of sanitary ware, ceramic tiles, and bathroom fixtures. The company operates through three principal business segments: Sanitary Ware, Ceramic Tiles, and Brassware. Its core product portfolio comprises vitreous china and fine fireclay sanitary ware products; including water closets, close-coupled and wall-hung toilet suites, vanity and countertop washbasins, pedestals, bidets, urinals, commercial squatting pans, acrylic and ceramic shower trays, and kitchen sinks; ceramic and porcelain tile collections; comprising glazed and unglazed ceramic floor tiles, decorative wall tiles, rectified porcelain tiles, and assorted interior and exterior architectural surfaces; and bathroom brassware and accessories; including single-lever and thermostatic mixers, sink faucets, shower fittings, and related plumbing mechanisms. In addition to commercializing products under its proprietary Lecico brand, the company acts as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) producing customized product ranges for prominent international sanitary ware brands. Founded in 1975, with historical group origins dating to 1959, the company is headquartered in Alexandria, Egypt, and operates major manufacturing complexes in Khorshid and Borg El Arab, Egypt, alongside regional production in Lebanon. Lecico Egypt distributes its offerings across domestic commercial and residential building markets and exports to more than 50 countries worldwide, with major distribution operations and dedicated subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, France, across the European Union, the Middle East, and Africa. In recent strategic developments, Lecico Egypt executed a corporate restructuring program that finalized the legal merger of three wholly owned operating subsidiaries—International Ceramics, European Ceramics, and Lecico for Ceramic Industries—into the parent entity to eliminate administrative overlap, optimize operating expenses, and enhance supply chain synergies. Concurrently, the company implemented capital investment initiatives across its Alexandria facilities to modernize sanitary ware manufacturing via high-pressure casting lines, augment porcelain tile capacities, and improve kiln energy efficiency, while accelerating export-driven commercial strategies to expand market penetration across Europe and the Middle East.
