professional journey, which began when I assumed the role of Regional Manager for foreign companies.
Welcome, I am pleased to share with you an overview of my professional journey, which began when I assumed the role of Regional Manager for foreign companies. I was entrusted with an absolute general agency, not merely a formal employment designation, enabling me to represent these companies as a strategic partner rather than a conventional employee.
Through this role, we achieved exceptional success thanks to the fruitful collaboration and the unwavering efforts of my professional team, who were an integral part of these accomplishments. Our goal has always been to achieve excellence and distinction in all our endeavors.
Below is a list of the foreign companies I had the honor of representing, which played a pivotal role in enhancing my expertise and fulfilling my professional ambitions.

JAMAL M AL-REFAI
REFAI GROUP UK LTD
At the beginning of 2024, specifically in February, I made a strategic decision to establish a group of companies under my name. This decision stemmed from the significant successes we achieved in our professional journey and the challenges faced, where similar accomplishments were attributed to the companies I represented. This motivated me to create one of the largest groups, consisting of five companies specializing in various fields.
After thorough consultations with experts, I decided to register the group as a foreign entity in the United Kingdom, given its leading investment environment. In March 2024, all the required official documents were submitted for the registration process.
I am pleased to announce the successful registration of the group in November 2024. The group is now officially registered in the United Kingdom, the British Chamber of Commerce, and the Companies Registry. The headquarters was established in the vibrant and innovative city of London.
