Alexandria Business Pulse
- Culture Relationship-heavy, traditional, and moves at a more relaxed pace than Cairo.
- Lunch Break 2:30 PM - 4:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Alexandrians value personal trust and social rapport. Business culture is relational; spend time on greetings. The work week is Sunday through Thursday. Avoid calling during the late afternoon meal break and daily prayer times.
Kolkata Business Pulse
- Culture Intellectual and heritage-focused. Business often involves longer discussions and consensus.
- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 11:30 AM and 4:00 PM. Avoid the 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM lunch window. Business culture is intellectual and values detailed discussion; avoid overly aggressive "hard-sell" tactics. Note that the city slows down significantly during major festivals like Durga Puja.
