OUR EVOLUTION
AK-Trade’s foundations are rooted in over two decades of international salt trading, specializing in Egyptian marine and rock salt for de-icing and industrial applications.
Building on this foundation, AK-Trade expanded into agricultural commodities, animal feed, and food ingredients, identifying opportunities where Egypt’s competitive supply capabilities align with international market demand.
Today, AK-Trade operates as a diversified international commodity trading company within Al Akkad Group, combining established industry knowledge with a market-driven approach to developing commercially viable opportunities and lasting trading relationships.
