Egyptian startup Tareeqi has been acquired by eMushrif, an Oman-based startup specializing in digital transport tracking systems.

Egyptian startup Tareeqi ,an application used to track the bus fleets of schools, universities and institutions in the MENA region without installing any expensive GPS devices, has been acquired by eMushrif, an Oman-based startup specializing in digital transport tracking systems.

Founded by Alfarouk Saleh and Mohammed Monier in 2018,Tareeqi aims at solving the problems that face millions of people daily and will now be managing the expansion of eMushrif in the Egyptian market.

eMushrif started off as a logistics and transport company and now leverages Internet of Things (IoT)and artificial intelligence(AI) technology in the corporate and school transport sector. The startup has raised a US$2.3 million Series A funding round last December.

Saleh said he was excited about the deal since eMushrif tries to solve the same problems as Tareeqi.

“Both companies try to make the daily bus trips easier for students, parents, school administrators, and bus drivers. Traditional school bus trips are full of delays and problems, and the hardest thing about them is that they are repeated daily. Millions of people worldwide face those problems daily, which motivates us to work hard to reach more people and make their lives a little bit easier,” he said.

Tareeqi Adnan Al-Shuaili, CEO of eMushrif, commented on the deal “The launch of our operations in Egypt is an exceptional opportunity for us in eMushrif. This bold step unlocks our ability to offer our products to various regional sectors looking for innovation and simplicity in their business processes.
