Where will I buy groceries and do other shopping in Cairo?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Cairo about good local restaurants, they mentioned...

"Expats in Cairo, often shop for groceries at Carrefour, a popular French supermarket chain with several locations throughout the city. They can find a wide range of local and imported products at reasonable prices. The website for Carrefour Egypt is https://www.carrefouregypt.com/. Another popular grocery store for expats is Metro Market, which offers a variety of local and international products, as well as fresh produce and baked goods. Their website can be found at https://www.metro-egypt.com/. For fresh fruits, vegetables, and other local products, expats can visit local markets such as Souq al-Gomaa or the Maadi Market. These markets offer a more authentic Egyptian shopping experience and often have lower prices than supermarkets. In addition to grocery shopping, expats can find a variety of clothing, electronics, and other items at Citystars Mall, one of the largest shopping centers in Cairo. The mall features a mix of local and international brands, as well as a cinema and numerous dining options. The website for Citystars Mall is https://www.citystars-heliopolis.com.eg/. For more traditional Egyptian products, such as textiles, pottery, and jewelry, expats can visit the famous Khan el-Khalili market. This bustling bazaar is a great place to find unique souvenirs and gifts, as well as to experience the vibrant atmosphere of Cairo," commented one expat who made the move to Cairo, Egypt.
