About
About us
Tiba World is a fresh-fruit trading house that began in Egypt in 1994 and has grown into an import and export business spanning a supplier network across several continents.
We started as a local fruit trader in the Egyptian market and learned the craft from its hardest side: how fruit arrives intact, and how quality gets measured before volume does. Over time our relationships with growers turned into seasonal contracts, and a local business turned into cross-border trade.
Today we import and export through a selected supplier network across several continents. Rotating between origins is what lets us cover the full year in lines that used to be treated as seasonal — while holding the same specification whatever the source.
Our focus on avocado and pineapple was no accident: they are the two hardest lines to handle. The first demands precise dry-matter readings before picking; the second demands strict control of temperature and ventilation. Master those two, and the rest follows.
We believe a good trader isn't measured by shipment volume, but by how many times the container arrived exactly as promised.
