How Oriental Weavers started

This article is independent and not affiliated with Oriental Weavers. Trademarks belong to their respective owners. We are not an authorized dealer.

This is a short, independent history of Oriental Weavers. It is not a catalog, and Egypt Buying Agent does not speak for the brand.

Oriental Weavers was founded in 1979 by Mohamed Farid Khamis and grew from 10th of Ramadan City into one of the large machine-made rug exporters. The Egyptian factories are why shoppers look for specific qualities and sizes on the domestic side, not only the foreign wholesale catalog. A history of looms does not book a rug. Size, fiber, and the two USD approvals still decide whether we buy and ship.

How an order moves

Send one link per item when you can. Add color, size, and plug type in order comments. Reference prices go on the form in EGP. We answer on the order page in USD, including the service fee. First payment covers the goods and that fee. Second payment is international shipping after we weigh the packed parcel. You can ask us to hold a box at the warehouse while you add another Egyptian seller.

Service fee and the two payments

The service fee is published on pricing. We apply it when we write your order page. You see item totals and the service fee in USD before the first payment. International shipping is not guessed on this page. After the goods are at our warehouse, we weigh them and write a second USD total. Estimates, not final bills, sit on the shipping calculator. Enter the price you saw in EGP. We convert the working total to USD.

Combine sellers, then ship once

A phone from one Cairo shop and cotton shirts from another do not need two international labels. Ask us to hold pieces at the warehouse. We combine them when the products and the paperwork allow it. Fragile jewelry and heavy appliances may still need their own cartons. Service fee rules stay on pricing. Rough weight bands are on the shipping calculator. Final shipping is the weighed parcel, written in USD.

Details that save a rejected order

Tell us if the item is a gift, if it must stay sealed, or if Arabic-only packaging is a problem. We can photograph a label before export when you ask in order comments. Voltage on Egyptian appliances is often 220V. Plugs may not match your wall. Summer heat in Egypt is hard on chocolate, lipstick, and some pharmacy creams. Mention heat if the goods will sit before the second payment. We buy only the item you approved, matched to the listing that day.

From the workshop story to a real purchase

History explains why shoppers look for Oriental Weavers in Egypt. It does not reserve stock. When you want a current piece, send the Egyptian product link or a boutique note. We check domestic availability, write USD item lines and the service fee, and ship after you approve both payment stages. See pricing and the shipping calculator.
