email: bacsamir@internetegypt.com
Following the economic changes in Egypt in the 70’s, we have foreseen that the rehabilitation of the industrial sector was obvious, and it would undoubtedly be done in cooperation with companies from the industrially developed countries. Since our establishment, we have taken up agencies of reputable companies in the metallurgical field, CONCAST STANDARD, CLECIUM (known now as VAI CLECIUM), and KM EUROPE are among companies we are proud to have successfully cooperated with since many years. The fact is that most of the Egyptian metallurgical companies have in their plants today one or more production units supplied by one of our principals. Today BAC has done business with more than 100 international manufacturers, engineering companies, and also suppliers of goods and services. Our customer’s list has reached more than 60 customers in the outside of Egypt. All this made it possible to maintain an average turnover of about $ 30,000,000 for the last 10 years
