spend time with so many talented people who are truly passionate about what they do and are unstoppable in developing seamless experiences that connect the globe. Working shoulder to
shoulder with my fellow Aramexians and helping build the Aramex of the future is one of my most cherished experiences.

I am grateful to our Founder Fadi Ghandour, the Board and the Aramex Management team, who have played an integral part in driving the Aramex growth story. In a challenging global
environment, our company is well-positioned to achieve its strategic vision, scale new heights and strengthen its place as a leading industry player in its core markets.”

leadership, unwavering commitment and passion with which he has led the organization. Bashar has played a crucial role in the growth and success of the Company and he leaves Aramex in a
powerful position for continued growth and excellence. He has built a strong management team that will continue his legacy, driving our growth journey forward. On behalf of the Board, I thank
him for his many contributions to the business and we look forward to receiving his ongoing expert advice and counsel.”
