Ezdehar Egypt Mid-Cap Fund and NBK Capital, respectively private equity firm specialized in the funding of Egypt-based medium-size enterprises and the National Bank of Kuwait’s investment branch, have each made a bid to acquire a majority stake in MisrCafé, an Egyptian instant coffee producer and roaster. The information was revealed by the country’s media without more details.

 Arqaam Capital, the investment bank specialized in emerging markets, will help analyze these offers as MisrCafé’s financial advisor . 

Let’s recall that in 2015, the investment company Abraaj Capital had initiated negotiations with the coffee producer’s major shareholders to acquire a majority stake. These negotiations were unsuccessful, however.
