The Swift Story
Established in 1991, as Swift Freight by Khaled Morsy, Urs Moll, Mohamed Elwakil and Amr Yakan, the company quickly gained the trust of flagship global companies as an agent and partner, ascending to a market leading position and consolidating the structure under Swift Group.
Since 2016, Swift Egypt has itself grown from a back-office Importer of Record service provider into a commercial and investment arm leading the revival of the Group through our second generation, leveraging the Swift legacy, experience and network.
