Hisham Talaat Moustafa ranked fourth in the list of the Most Influential Real Estate Company Leaders in the Middle East for 2025, becoming the only Egyptian in the top ten. He advanced from seventh place in 2024 to fourth place this year, following his success in launching significant real estate and tourism projects, notably SouthMED on the North Coast of Egypt and Banan in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This success propelled the group's sales volume to exceed half a trillion Egyptian pounds for the first time for an Egyptian real estate company.
