The AI-powered HR platform aims to boost digital transformation for Egyptian businesses with a new regional hub and significant capital injection.
ZenHR, a human resources and payroll platform, has launched its sixth regional office in Cairo, Egypt. This move signifies the company's commitment to the Egyptian market and its goal of supporting the digital transformation of local institutions, companies, and factories. CEO Yousef Shamoun stated that the Cairo office represents a significant milestone after nearly a decade of serving Egyptian clients. Over the next two years, ZenHR intends to invest more than EGP 150m to expand its local team and enhance its service offerings.
The company is targeting medium to large enterprises in sectors such as manufacturing, retail, services, and technology, as well as government entities. ZenHR's platform automates HR processes, aiming to reduce operational costs and improve productivity by complying with Egyptian labor legislation, including the new Labour Law No. 14 of 2025. The platform automatically calculates payroll, factoring in income tax, social insurance, and overtime, and integrates with a bilingual Arabic-English interface and mobile application.
The expansion was announced at a large ZenHR event in Cairo, attended by over 250 HR leaders and business representatives, including diplomatic and government officials. During the event, ZenHR signed a memorandum of understanding with digital insurance broker Amanleek to integrate its services, automating employee insurance activation and termination. ZenHR also honored its long-standing clients and signed new partnership agreements.
