  • Pro Tip Ideal window for calls is 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM. Ethiopia uses its own unique 12-hour clock (counting from 6 AM as "Hour 1"); always clarify "European Time" or "GMT/UTC" when scheduling to avoid confusion. Business is polite, formal, and values personal trust.

Cairo Business Pulse

  • Culture Traditional and relationship-heavy. Appointments are necessary but often fluid in timing.
  • Lunch Break 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM.
