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.
Surat Business Pulse
- Culture World capital of diamond polishing. Hardworking and trade-focused.
- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is late afternoon, between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Surat is a 24/7 trade hub; business often happens late into the evening. Discussions are pragmatic, fast-paced, and deeply rooted in global trade and manufacturing networks.
