I started my professional career in 2002 as Sales Man for Zawia Trading & Electronics (Sole Agent for SIEMENS & BOCSH Home Appliances in Yemen. we started the business from scratch. In 2006, I fulfilled my dream & I established Zawia Car rental (Authorized Franchise for Budget Rent a Car in Yemen) which I had since school days to become an entrepreneur . I was entirely responsible for this Company from A to Z, I have learned how to deal with different kind of workforce, I also learnt to apply training to entirely inexperienced new staff. I was exposed for the first time to a large Human Resources Department responsible for all related issues which a General Manager would not be exposed to in Europe. I managed to Zawia Car Rental from having 7 vehicles to the the 2nd Car Rental Provider Market Leader in the Yemeni Market and I am planning to take the company to the next highest levels of market pursuing to become the market leader. In 2009, I have been offered the opportunity to be Deputy General Manager in Zawia Trading & Electronics & keep my job at Zawia Car Rental, I have decided to take the new challenge & work in both companies & developing both business. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity due to the fact that I had the privilege to shape and complete that part of my character and my professionalism.

In 2010, I create a new whole sales team, giving achievable challenging sales target and making sure that all members of our sales force achieving these targets before the end of the year. In 2011 we were considered to be one of the first groups in Yemen in terms of selling Home appliances product & Car rental services.
