Egypt's government launched "Welcome Schools" fairs nationwide to provide affordable school supplies ahead of the new academic year. Running until late September or December in some areas, these fairs offer low-cost items like clothing, uniforms, and school supplies, with prices up to 30% lower than regular stores. This initiative aims to ease financial pressures on families amid ongoing economic challenges, including currency devaluation and tourism impacts from regional conflicts.
