VALO Hospitality Marks a Strategic Shift for MG Developments
According to Mohamed Motawea, Chairman of MG Developments, the launch of VALO Hospitality
is part of a broader five-year expansion plan The company plans to invest EGP 2 billion in the
hospitality sector, which reflects its commitment to enhancing asset returns, diversifying income
streams, and mitigating the seasonal demand fluctuations typically seen in tourism-based projects
Motawea emphasized that the establishment of a dedicated hospitality arm is a strategic pivot for
the company He highlighted that hospitality management is now viewed not just as a supplementary
activity but as a core function that safeguards asset value and ensures long-term returns for investors
Plans to Operate Six Hotels with Over 600 Rooms
As part of this expansion, MG Developments plans to develop and operate six hotels, with
a combined inventory of more than 600 rooms and suites This strategy includes the
standardization of leasing and operational procedures to meet unified, professional standards
ensuring that the group’s developments maintain their premium positioning in the market and
provide an elevated guest experience The hospitality strategy in Ain Sokhna targets various
market segments, including leisure tourism, family stays, business travelers, and MICE
(Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions)
To support this, four modern meeting and conference halls are being developed
in New Cairo and Ain Sokhna, which will contribute to higher occupancy rates and
reduce seasonal demand fluctuations
