── ABOUT 101 MARKETPLACE

Every local brand. One doorway.

We're building one home for the people making things in Egypt — designers, ceramicists, perfumers, printers and painters. One cart. One checkout. Thirty founding brands to start, and more as each aisle opens.

CAIRO · EGYPT ● OPENING NOVEMBER 2026
The manifesto · № 02

We're not another store.

"A marketplace built around Egypt's independent makers, brands and small businesses."

For years, Egypt's best small brands lived on a hundred different Instagram bios, WhatsApp numbers and pop-up calendars. You'd hear about them from a friend, then lose the link.

101 is the doorway we wished existed — one curated marketplace where the ceramicist, the perfumer, the streetwear label and the 3D-printing studio across town are all one cart away.

We take 15% of what sells, and nothing when nothing sells. Makers get a dashboard they run themselves, an audience that earns points at every brand, and a checkout that works. Everything else — the craft, the names, the stories — stays theirs.

2024 ─── 2026
2024 · THE NOTICE

A founder kept losing links.

Bookmarks. Screenshots. Voice notes. Egypt's best small brands lived everywhere except the one place you could find them again.

2025 · THE BUILD

We built the cart.

One checkout across every brand. A dashboard each maker runs themselves. Points you earn at one brand and spend at any other. Delivery that respects how each maker actually ships.

2026 · THE DOOR OPENS

You walk in.

Five aisles open in November with thirty founding brands. Five more aisles follow in January. One marketplace.

WHAT'S INSIDE · № 05

Ten aisles. Five open in November, five more in January.

Every aisle is curated by a person, not an algorithm — most of them makers themselves.

WHAT WE BELIEVE · № 06

Three things we keep repeating to ourselves.

01

Local before loud.

Every brand on 101 is made in Egypt. Not "designed here, made elsewhere" — actually made here, by people whose names we know.

02

Curation, not flood.

We say no a lot. The point isn't "everything for sale" — it's the things you'll be glad you found.

03

Makers keep more.

15% on what sells. 2% for card and wallet handling, nothing on cash on delivery. No listing fees, no mystery, no lock-in.

For makers · № 07

You make something.
We'll help sell it.

Joining is free and there are no listing fees. We handle the cart, the checkout and the points; you ship with your own courier, at your own rate, on your own lead time. 15% on what sells, nothing on what doesn't.
