Essa Khan — Founder & CEO, Ecomplug.com

Helping sellers source, store, sell and ship across the GCC.

For 17 years I've worked on the operational side of trade and e-commerce: sourcing products, moving them across borders, storing them, selling them online and getting them to the customer's door. Through Deals Arcade Portal LLC and its companies in Oman, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, I've built BusinessArcade.com, Dressfair.com and Ecomplug.com, which puts everything I've learned into one platform for sellers.
