High Lights of
Achievements During my work in QTRAC
Make good sales record for whole range of commercial vehicles ,
supply all commercial vehicle components to the mfg.
During my work in EIM:
When I joined EIM the sales of earthmoving equipment was zero,
the banks refused to cooperate with EIM, there was a stock of
over 10 million USD and customer debits of more than 50 million
EGP, first action I took was start selling the stock to international
companies which led to the decrease of the stock to normal levels
(less than 1 million USD) and the income of these sales was used
to reopen all our accounts with the banks, also a plan was placed
to enter in negotiations with all the debited customers to reinstall
the debits and were possible reacquire the equipment they owned
and resell them to active customers which in the end led to
increasing the rate of collection from the customers to almost 95%
and decreasing the customer debits, in addition to opening new
markets by region and segments which led to an increase of the
market share to 38% and also developing new activities besides
the earthmoving which led to the penetration of the Bus, Trucks &
Tires industries.
All of the above led to increasing the annual turnover of the
Equipment Division from 8 million EGP to 200 million EGP in 2005
During my work in Unatrac:
I started by establishing new facilities, renewing the old facilities,
appointed new employees and gave them appropriate training in
the branches Kenya, Tanzania and Uganada, I also gave support
to the branches of Nigeria, Ghana and Iraq which led to increasing
the sales volume from 15 million USD to over 100 million USD.
During my work in Mantrac:
Opened new markets:
By region: Upper Egypt and Sinai
By Segment: establishing new segments: Road construction,
private quarries, small private contractors, cement companies and
governmental customers.
By Products: through penetrating markets dominated by
competitors Caterpillar especially in Articulated Dump Trucks
which was dominated by Volvo and Hydraulic Excavators which
was dominated by Japanese excavators.
All the above led to increasing the sales volume of Mantrac.
Languages Arabic: mother tongue
English: excellent command both written and spoken.
Computer Skills Excellent handling of Windows XP, MS Office and Internet.
Attended a training course on the operation system of MANTRAC
(DBS).

High Lights of Achievements During my work in QTRAC Make good sales record for whole range of commercial vehicles , supply all commercial vehicle components to the mfg. During my work in EIM: When I joined EIM the sales of earthmoving equipment was zero, the banks refused to cooperate with EIM, there was a stock of over 10 million USD and customer debits of more than 50 million EGP, first action I took was start selling the stock to international companies which led to the decrease of the stock to normal levels (less than 1 million USD) and the income of these sales was used to reopen all our accounts with the banks, also a plan was placed to enter in negotiations with all the debited customers to reinstall
