Read the transcript

In 1984, at Port Tawfik in Suez, Mohamed Al Rouby started a customs clearance business. Between ships, cargo and paperwork, he saw the job as more than releasing a shipment. It was earning a client's trust that their goods were in hands that knew the way.

Year by year, the journey grew. From Port Tawfik to Adabiya, then to Ain Sokhna, one of Egypt's key gateways for trade and industry. As trade changed, so did the company: from paper procedures to digital systems like NAFEZA and advance cargo information. Customs clearance grew into freight coordination, document review before arrival, and inland transport to the client's door.

Along the way, he passed his experience to his sons, Mustafa and Moharram. Today they lead the company as co-managing directors, and have added digital filing, an office in TEDA Suez, and a website in four languages. And the founder stays at their side, as senior advisor.

Ports change. Technology changes. But the name he began with in 1984 carries on. Al Rouby Customs Clearance and Logistics. Experience passed down, since 1984.
