D ata from Wireless World Forum’s “Egypt Mobile Market 2006” statistical handbook reveals that the Egyptian mobile market will triple the number of unique subscribers in the country within a period of three years. In 2004 there were 7 million unique owners of mobile phones, by 2007 this number will more than triple to 23 million.

 

Egyptian mobile phone market survey
Competition for lower income subscribers, 98% of which are prepaid mobile phone devices, has led to a downward trend in ARPU which will fall to $11.3 pcm in 2007 (a decline of 12% on the previous year). Egypt is a relatively low penetration mobile phone market, only 29% of Egyptians will own a mobile phone in 2007. Continuing to increase the subscriber base represents the best opportunity to achieve growth until 2007 and beyond.
