Your Arabic Audience

Unlock the potential of Arabic-speaking audience

Large numbers of people in the economically dynamic, Arabic-speaking region – including vast numbers of potential customers – may be missing out on your content.

Did you know?

Billions of dollars’ worth of trades take place every year across the Arab world, from the Emirates to Morocco and from Bahrain to Saudi Arabia.
The region is constantly becoming more economically relevant, whether in terms of its resource-rich countries or emerging economies – all of which share a burgeoning young population of potential customers for your product or service.
Estimated number of Arabic speakers in the world varies, but Wikipedia puts it at 422 million in 2020 (and that’s a huge market to tap into!)
Arabic is the world’s fifth most spoken language, after Mandarin, English, Hindi and Spanish.
Despite this, it’s only the 12th most used language on the Internet, accounting for only 0.9% of all content. The Arabic-speaking community is therefore clearly underserved by online communication – just think of the opportunities available to you online!
English levels are generally considered to be lagging behind across the region. Even Dubai was ranked as “low English proficiency” by the EF English Proficiency Index.

Put all that together and what does it mean? Simple.

If you’re going international or even thinking about winning Arabic-speaking customers over – communicating in Arabic is a must.

You don’t want to confine yourself to a small proportion of the population!

But doing so successfully requires an expert guidance, which is where I come in.

With my outstanding track record of professional translation and interpreting events for clients large and small, I bring to the table both total fluency in English and Spanish, and a thorough grounding in Western culture, after many years spent living in the UK and Czech Republic.

Moving to Egypt made easy!

Relocating to any Arab country entails looking beyond the business opportunity and understanding the way the country’s society, culture and religion work.

If Egypt is your destination, Meraki is on hand to answer all your queries, both before and after your arrival. Be an insider from the get-go, and make sure your transition to this fascinating culture is as easy and smooth as possible.

You’ll save a lot of time by having me by your side, rather than finding things out the hard way, on your own and in an unknown culture.

With me, you’ll also get guidance with the practical issues that accompany any move to a new host country.
