ERP development · Odoo partners
Odoo subcontracting for partners. More developers, the same delivery.
Odoo partners often sign more implementations than their developers can deliver. GrowAxis employs Odoo developers in Cairo who join your delivery team for one project or for as long as you need them, in your process, your repositories and your client meetings. Cairo is one hour ahead of Brussels for most of the year, and a mid-level developer costs about $2,720 a month, all in, at GrowAxis’s 2026 rates.

06FAQ
Odoo subcontracting for partners: what founders ask first.
Yes. They work as part of your delivery team, in your tools and in your client meetings, while GrowAxis is their employer in Egypt.
About $2,720 a month for a mid-level developer at GrowAxis’s 2026 rates, all in: pay, social insurance, equipment and management; $1,500 for a junior and $6,940 for a senior.
Odoo partners in Belgium, the Netherlands, France and Germany, one hour from Cairo for most of the year, and partners in the Gulf, close to Cairo’s hours.
Yes, as agreed in the contract: you can keep a developer for the next project or end the assignment.
The developers work in your repositories, servers and accounts, with the access you give them. For personal data from the EU the contract adds a GDPR transfer basis, such as the standard contractual clauses. In Egypt, Law 151 of 2020 applies, and since 1 November 2026 companies there that handle personal data need a licence.
In Odoo’s Manufacturing app, subcontracting means having another company make products that you then sell. On this page it means something else: an Odoo partner adding developers from another company to its own delivery team.
Yes. The developers work as part of your delivery team, in your tools and in your client meetings, under your project lead. GrowAxis is their employer in Egypt.
Yes. Version upgrades of custom modules are part of the work. Odoo 17 left standard support in September 2026 and Odoo 18 leaves it in September 2027, and Odoo upgrades a database only to a version in standard support or one that left it less than six months ago.
Cairo is one hour ahead of Brussels for most of the year, and a mid-level developer costs about $2,720 a month, all in, at GrowAxis’s 2026 rates. The developers work in your process and your repositories from the first day.
