Step 0 / 7 completed
01
Legal Foundation & Company Structure
LLC incorporation · GAFI registration · Working capital
⚖ Legal
🏢
Company Type — LLC
The Limited Liability Company is the gold standard for startups — it limits personal liability to your share of capital. Choose shareholders who fill functional gaps: Technical/R&D, Commercial/Sales, and Finance.
📄
Shareholders' Agreement
Draft a robust contract covering vesting periods, "bad leaver" clauses, and clear profit distribution vs. reinvestment ratios. This is your most important founding document.
🏛
GAFI Registration Steps
Reserve unique brand name   Bank certificate (working capital deposit)   Commercial Register & Tax Card — your legal IDs for all future government transactions.
💡
Working Capital Tip
For export purposes, declare a higher capital base. It boosts credibility with international banks and the Export Council for Medical Industries — unlocking Golden Licenses & export subsidies.
Milestone Checklist
Ask Cosmo — Legal & Structure Advisor
02
Branding & Trademark Strategy
Name protection · ITDA registration · Master brand architecture
✦ Brand
Trademark Registration
Register your name and logo at the Internal Trade Development Authority (ITDA). Your brand is your most valuable asset — protect it before any public launch or investor conversation.
🏗
Master Brand Architecture
Register a Master Brand that groups multiple products (Serums, Creams, Shampoos) under one identity at the EDA. This makes the notification process more cohesive and builds stronger consumer recognition.
Milestone Checklist

Market Intelligence & Gap Analysis
Consumer pain points · Competitor mapping · Trend data
🔍 Research
Use Trend Spotting for Real Market Intelligence
Powered by Cosmo's 4-layer AI engine — global trends, science, sales strategy & fraud detection for your exact category & market
🛒
Online Research Tools
Google Trends (search volume), Meta Ad Library (spy on competitor ads), Amazon/Jumia Reviews (mine 1-star reviews for pain points). Do not guess what the market wants — use data to shape your products.
🏥
Field Research
Pharmacy Audits: Visit chains (El Ezaby, etc.), check prices, ask pharmacists which products are returned or requested but unavailable. Dermatologist Visits: Get clinical needs (texture, ingredients for specific conditions).
🏭
Manufacturer Intelligence
Your Toll Manufacturer knows which formulas are trending and which packaging is most cost-effective. Attend Cosmoprof to build supplier relations and spot global trends before they reach Egypt.
📊
Gap = Your Opportunity
A gap is where demand exists but supply is weak. The best gaps: repeated complaints in reviews, products pharmacists say are constantly requested, dermatologist unmet needs, or global trends not yet in Egypt.

Avoiding Cash Burn & EDA Launch
Regulatory timeline · Cash preservation · Toll manufacturing
🚀 Launch
⚠  Start EDA notification immediately. It takes 6–12 months. Do not wait for the "perfect" office to start the paperwork.
🏭
Toll Manufacturing (Never Build a Factory)
Use a certified third-party manufacturer to keep capital flexible. Your money goes into brand building, not steel and equipment. Look for GMP-certified toll manufacturers with cosmetic experience in Egypt.
💳
Credit Manufacturing Strategy
Negotiate 30–60 day credit with your manufacturer to preserve cash. Push for cash or short-term checks from distributors to maintain liquidity. The cash gap is where startups die.
🎯
Hero Product Focus Rule
Launch 2–3 Hero SKUs only. A full 10-product line at launch is a cash burn trap — 10x registration fees, 10x inventory, 10x marketing. Win with 2 products, then expand.
📋
EDA Notification Documents
Required: INCI list + concentrations, product claims, safety assessment (CPSR), GMP certificate, stability data, packaging artwork in Arabic. Start this the day you finalise your formula.
Check EDA Compliance Before Submission
Run a full EDA regulatory compliance check on your formula — flag restricted ingredients, concentration limits, labelling requirements & more
