Startup Scene

Falak Startups has exited Egypt-based Delta Oil at a 25.5x return in EGP terms, marking one of the platform’s highest-return investments.

Delta Oil operates in waste management and alternative energy, focusing on the collection and aggregation of used cooking oil to supply industries producing biodiesel, recycled jet fuel and other energy products.

The company has built a structured collection network across Egypt, operating in more than five cities and hundreds of villages, sourcing from households and food-and-beverage businesses to convert a fragmented waste stream into industrial input.

Falak backed the company early through its accelerator programme and continued to support its growth through operational development, including team structuring, sales strategy, financial modelling and partnership building.

The exit positions Delta Oil within the portfolio of Den VC, as the company moves into its next phase of expansion.

The model reflects a broader trend in Egypt’s startup ecosystem, where ventures are targeting gaps in informal or fragmented sectors and building scalable systems that link waste streams with industrial demand.
