In 2020, Skretting Egypt was recognised with a Lapwing Award from our parent company SHV for an important training and employment programme it has introduced for women and young people in the country. This initiative, which is being conducted in collaboration with the Sawiris Foundation for social development and the Netherlands embassy in Egypt, has been providing training in such areas as quality and laboratory analysis, production processes, purchasing, sustainability and living our values. It’s also seeking to encourage the rights of young women.

The Lapwing Awards were introduced by SHV to encourage and acknowledge all of the great work that is being done across its family of companies.
