Feb. 18th 1998. . Dear Sirs, I have the pleasure to enclose herewith a copy of my C.V. introducing myself to you as a person of very good experience in Freight Forwarding & International Transportation and in the different commercial services related thereto; and proposing myself for representing your company in Egypt and the Middle East as its own local resident COMMERCIAL DELEGATE looking after your interests and projects in this area. As a matter of fact, among lots of investors, many international freight forwarding & transportation companies have started their own presence in Egypt seizing the opportunity of the economic reformation achieved in this area; as now is the right time for business starting in Egypt. Starting with Commercial Delegation I foresee our final target, in case my proposal meets your interest, is to develop that delegation into the full operating companys branch in Egypt. That is to be achieved gradually by time, but as quickly as possible, through building a good account of clients and by selecting and training an efficient professional work team. In addition to my qualifications shown in my enclosed C.V., I am actually a USA resident as per the Green Card I have got for lawful admission for permanent residence in America (Employment Authorized). Such advantage is considered as a good asset for a person appointed by an American company to represent it as its own Commercial Delegate in the area where he was grown up. Speaking their own language and understanding their mentality and the way they think, such delegate can move among the companys correspondents & agents, its clients, the local official authorities, and any other concerned parties to intervene, for his companys favor, to avoid any probable problems and to enhance the companys achievements in this area. For any further details and/or information, please feel free and do not hesitate to contact me through any of the contact means listed among my personal data in my C.V. attached hereto.
