Mohamed Mostafa Othman, CEO and founder of Favelin, shares his journey with amazon.eg: “We started selling on amazon.eg from 2022, and since then amazon.eg’s different services and tools helped us focus on expanding our product category, reaching more customers, and not worrying about the logistics and operations. Sale events such as Prime Day boost our sales, and we are excited to continue offering our customers the best deals on our skin and hair care products to accommodate their needs during this summer.”
