Almira Developments is an Egyptian real estate developer founded in 2020 under the leadership of Engineer Adel Shawky, the company’s founder and Chairman of the Board. Since launch, the company has specialised in residential development inside New Cairo and the Beit Al Watan district, building an execution record that now stands at 17 delivered projects in six years.
The portfolio today spans Beit Al Watan, North House and the Andalus area of the Fifth Settlement, marking the company’s shift from standalone residential buildings to its first fully integrated community, Almira Aurea, with prices starting from EGP 2,300,000 and payment plans extending up to 12 years.

Almira Developments began operating in 2020 with a name rooted in Andalusian history. The phrase Al-Amira was pronounced in Andalusian Arabic as Almira, meaning Princess of the Castle — a choice that reflects the company’s intent to build homes that combine prestige with genuine protection.
The company was founded by Engineer Adel Shawky, an Egyptian software engineer who spent years working in Saudi Arabia before returning home and moving into real estate development. That technical background shapes how projects are run, favouring upfront planning and parallel task distribution over sequential execution.
The group’s expertise, however, predates 2020. Almira is an extension of Golden Stars Contracting, a firm with more than 12 years in the Egyptian market and completed works across
New Cairo
and
Obour City. This lineage gives Almira the full property production toolkit under one roof, from development through to contracting, without depending on an external contractor for core construction stages.
Between 2020 and 2026 the company acquired 40 land plots across Beit Al Watan and New Cairo, and currently has 7 projects under construction, all residential buildings within Beit Al Watan, alongside its first integrated development in the Andalus area.
One distinctive feature of the company’s internal structure is that its engineering team is larger than the sales and administration teams combined, and works on projects in parallel rather than in sequence. The company describes this as the direct reason behind its delivery speed. The Queen Bee emblem is tied to the brand identity as a reference to that team operating as a single organised system moving toward one defined goal.
Almira Developments is led by its founder and Chairman, Engineer Adel Shawky, who began his career as a software engineer and worked for several years in the Saudi market before returning to Egypt to establish a property company built on an engineering-led approach to execution.
The Chairman supervises the in-house engineering team directly, and that team forms the backbone of the operation: designing projects, monitoring construction and holding to the delivery schedules announced to clients. This was reflected at the launch event for Almira Aurea, attended by the Chairman alongside the company’s partners and representatives of major property marketing firms.
The philosophy of Almira Developments rests on the concept of Extra by Standard: added quality, structural safety, comfort and durability are not optional upgrades a buyer pays extra for, but an integral part of the baseline specification in every unit the company delivers.
That concept translates into concrete construction decisions, including thermal and acoustic insulation, energy-saving walls delivering savings of up to 40%, earthquake-resistant structural design, and two elevators per building serving from the garage through to the roof. These elements move from marketing extras to a repeated standard across every project.
The company aims to hold a leading position in the Egyptian property market through professional expertise and disciplined execution that make it a first choice for buyers searching for suitable housing. The focus is on exceeding residential expectations rather than simply meeting them, through units that combine the widest possible set of living and investment advantages with flexible payment structures suited to different financial plans.

Alongside the above, the portfolio includes further Beit Al Watan developments such as J3, G95, C66, M110, B141 and J164, reflecting a deliberate geographic concentration on
residential projects
within New Cairo rather than horizontal expansion across scattered cities.

The Beit Al Watan district is the original core of the company’s activity. It sits between Al Rehab and Madinaty, bounded by the Suez Road to the north and the Mohammed bin Zayed Axis to the south. Almira’s projects here take the form of residential buildings with a ground floor and repeated floors, specialising in
apartments
sized from around 150 sqm up to more than 230 sqm in some developments.
The district currently holds 7 projects under construction. These are the developments the engineering team runs in parallel, since standalone buildings allow more than one site to be active at the same time without competing for resources.
North House is a newer extension of Beit Al Watan located directly south of the Suez Road, giving it straightforward access to Al Rehab, Madinaty and the Middle Ring Road. The company has completed a group of delivered developments here including F113, E122, C9 and G82, with unit sizes starting around 163 sqm in some buildings.
These projects share the same construction specification the company applies throughout, from energy-saving walls to earthquake-resistant design, which is why the district represents Almira’s largest delivery record ahead of its move into the integrated community model.

Almira Aurea marks the turning point in the company’s trajectory, taking it from standalone residential buildings to a fully integrated mixed-use community. It sits in the heart of the Andalus area in the
Fifth Settlement
on land allocated for the company’s first compound.
The project name combines two parts: Almira, referring to the Andalusian princess, and Aurea, a Latin word meaning gold, historically linked to the Roman Aureus coin and to the chemical symbol for gold, Au. Together they read as The Golden Princess. The Aurea philosophy expresses a focus on sustainable, long-term value rather than temporary luxury, tying gold to ideas of quality and continuity.
Units range from studios at 46 sqm and one-bedroom homes at 53 sqm, to two-bedroom units at 107 sqm and three-bedroom units at 145 sqm. Buildings consist of a ground floor plus five repeated floors, with a layout that protects privacy and orients homes toward the green areas.
The project extends well beyond its residential component. It includes a strip of
commercial shops
on the ground floor and three floors dedicated to
medical clinics, together with a
pharmacy, a hypermarket and a nursery, covering residents’ daily needs inside the project boundary.
The services package covers green spaces, a swimming pool, walking, running and cycling tracks, a children’s play area, a Clubhouse, a private garage for every unit, and round-the-clock security and surveillance systems.
Prices start from EGP 2,300,000, with an indicative average price per metre starting at EGP 38,000 and monthly instalments from roughly EGP 17,000. Payment plans include zero-down-payment options extending up to 12 years, along with a discount package tied to the payment method chosen.
