"Our startup was born out of the disruptions which resulted from the pandemic last year, also affecting the tourism industry and shifting its focus on new experiences," stated the top official.
"Today, Mughamer.com has become one of the most successful investment prospects by several angel investors, thanks to the niche market and segment it serves, and we are confident that our business and brand value will continue to increase, opening new opportunities for growth and expansion, in-line with the profitable forecast on adventure tourism’s growth worldwide," he added.
