Hussam Khoury, President of Jabbar Internet Group, said, “Repzo has shown excellent growth since inception and is clearly poised to become the leading provider of Mobile CRMs in the region. We are looking forward to working with our new investment partners to help the team at Repzo fulfill its vision.”

Laith Zreiqat, a Partner at Arzan VC, said, “We invest in mission-driven teams that demonstrate strong founder-market fit, as well as the complementary skills that will enable them to go the distance and carry the burden. We are all about people and Repzo ticks all the boxes. We are excited to start helping in their growth and expansion across MENA.”

Shane Shin, Founding Managing Partner at Shorooq Partners, said, “We are joining this journey to help Repzo become the leading software for field force management and will scale it globally.
