Cornerstone Development is providing distinctive and innovative offers on units in its The Curve project at the Cityscape Egypt exhibition, which will run from 4-7 November 2020 at the Egypt International Exhibition Centre (EIEC)
The company’s CEO, Ashraf Boulos, said that the Cityscape Egypt exhibition’s organisers, Informa International, are following strict precautionary measures to preserve the health and safety of companies and visitors to the exhibition. These have been put in place to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
The move by Informa International has further reassured companies and visitors, especially since the Cityscape Egypt exhibition is a huge real estate event that those interested in the sector await annually
Boulos added that the success of major events in the past few months, such as Le Marché and the Al-Ahram Real Estate Exhibition (AQARI), as well as the El Gouna Festival Film, reflects the success of applying precautionary measures
It also reflects the level of awareness among Egyptian citizens and their culture, which will ensure that the Cityscape Egypt exhibition is likely to achieve its expected success
He said that the company will provide exceptional offers to customers during the exhibition, including gifts of purchase vouchers for electrical appliances. This means that if a customer purchases a unit priced at EGP 2m, they will receive a voucher to buy electrical devices worth EGP 60,000. If the unit price is EGP 3m, they receive a voucher to buy electrical appliances worth EGP 80,000
Additionally, the company is offering a long and balanced payment plan for The Curve project units of up to nine years, which is valid during the exhibition period only, while the project repayment period ranges between five and eight years
The company also provides special gifts to its real estate marketing partners to motivate them to achieve the target. This will create new mechanisms that keep pace with the company's excellence, and contribute to achieving added value to the market
