During the visit, the delegation attended the Egypt–Thailand Business Forum and business matching sessions with Egyptian government agencies and private sector partners.

The office oversees key business segments including Paper & Packaging, Food & Beverage, and Building Materials, while continuing to expand its market coverage to Egypt.
