What's your business, and who are your customers?

We are specialists in the sourcing of suppliers. Our customers are big, small, or medium-sized companies looking for good suppliers and background support.

Tell us about yourself

Before the pandemic, I was working as an employee. As soon as the companies started to close, the manager of the one I was working for asked us to come and sign leave without pay, after that no sign from them, not even a "how are you," so I started to look for local opportunities, I started to establish a network of suppliers-buyers in PPE and work as a consultant-tier part, as it was the only growing and persistent demand, plus it had the humanitarian and pandemic fighting side. Day after day, the network became international. In January 2021, I created my own company delocalized in the USA, specializing in sourcing and procurement.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

The greatest achievement is that we are a reliable and trustworthy partner for our partners.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

Managing your business remotely, having to learn everything again in English (being an Arabic and French native speaker). That if we stagnate the company stagnates, the only way out is to move to create opportunities.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Discovering the adventure of entrepreneurship, even if it's in a personal mini-project.
  2. Perseverance and never giving up despite failures.
  3. Discipline and organization.
