The startup specializing in procurement, international logistics and distribution has strengthened its teams with the recruitment of new Lebanese employees. More than 30 new hires are also planned for 2023. This is the group's first office in the Middle East and its second in the MENA region.

For professionals and recent graduates, this represents very attractive professional opportunities. They will be able to develop their experience in a dynamic work environment. The Lebanese team will be an essential link in the acceleration of our growth" says Nicolas Rahmé, CEO and co-founder of the Group.


"DocShipper offers a great opportunity for talent from Lebanon. They will be able to join a fast-growing international company that offers real career opportunities, projects for renowned clients, and a young and dynamic corporate culture. It is the demonstration that despite the economic crisis that Lebanon is undergoing, we are convinced of the potential and skills of this country and participate at our level in its recovery," adds Pierre Rahmé, Co-founder and Head of the Sourcing Department.

Despite the profound changes the country is currently undergoing, the Franco-Lebanese co-founders of the startup believe that thanks to its young talents, a better future awaits Lebanon. With the opening of the new office, Docshipper joins companies such as CMA-CGM in delivering a strong and reassuring message to the Lebanese.
