The company

Wesha Stones for Marble & Granite — a family business in Alexandria since 1991

Wesha is a name, not a slogan. We buy blocks at the quarries, then saw, finish and export Egyptian stone, and we have been doing it in Alexandria since 1991.

Egypt sits on some of the largest beige marble reserves in the world and on granite beds that were being worked before anyone thought to write the fact down. What the country has often lacked is the discipline between the quarry and the container — consistent sawing, honest block selection, packing that survives a sea crossing, and paperwork that clears customs without a phone call.

That gap is the business. We buy blocks at the quarries, saw and finish them ourselves, and take responsibility for the material until it is standing in your warehouse. When a block is not good enough we say so, and when a colour has moved we tell you before we cut, not after you open the crate.

The factory

Our plant in the Abd El Kader manufacturing area in Alexandria runs gangsaw lines and block cutters, with 2,000 m² under roof on a 10,000 m² site and a monthly output of about 110,000 m² of finished material. Resin treatment, calibration, edge profiling and finishing are all in-house.

Quality

Every bundle is inspected against the approved block before it is packed. For the stone you select we arrange water absorption, flexural strength and abrasion tests at an accredited laboratory, and we will arrange third-party inspection at your cost on any order.

Working with us

We deal with importers, fabricators, contractors and architects, and we are comfortable at both ends of the scale: a single container of tiles for a fabricator's stock, or a phased facade package that has to hold colour across two years of deliveries.

We are also expanding the Alexandria plant, and looking for a partner to do it with. If you cut stone and want production in Egypt, read what we are offering a factory partner.

Wesha Stones is a manufacturer and exporter. We do not install. Export orders leave in containers, one 20 ft container being the minimum; customers in Egypt can buy smaller quantities from the yard in Alexandria.

Where the stone comes from

Four regions, one yard

Granite blocks stacked in the yard at Alexandria, each painted with its own block number
Blocks in the yard, wire-saw lines still on them. Every one carries its own number, and that number follows the stone to your bundle.

Galala Mountain, Suez

The plateau above the Gulf of Suez. Warm cream-beige marble in enormous block volumes — Galala Classic, Galala Extra and Perlato.

Minya, Upper Egypt

The escarpment on the west bank of the Nile in Upper Egypt. Sunny, Silvia, Samaha, Beige Menia and the Milly Gray family.

Aswan

The granite of the pharaohs, still working. Red, pink, grey, near-white and black, plus the dark Gandola bed.

Sinai

Cooler, pearlier marbles with a grey-green cast — Sinai Pearl, Katrina and Golden Sinai.

Come and see it, or let us send it.

Visitors are welcome at the factory in Alexandria. If you would rather not travel, samples and block photographs do the same job.
