FOR GULF FAMILY OFFICES INVESTING IN EGYPT

Read by boards. Built by an operator.

Mohamed Foash ran feed-mill development for one of Egypt's largest integrated poultry operators. Then he founded this practice. Now we audit Gulf-owned Egyptian agri operations using the same operational benchmarks he set inside the industry.

You own Egyptian land. You don't own the numbers.
That changes in 18 days.

From the founder's LinkedIn: "I tracked these KPIs operationally before I ever audited them."

We don't report on Egyptian agriculture.
We ran it — and we know exactly what the numbers should look like before we ever see them.

You have land.
You have a manager.
You don't have the numbers.

A Saudi family office investment director recently told us: "Our farm is running. Money is being spent. I cannot tell my father how much we made this quarter." That is not unusual. It is the default state of Gulf-owned Egyptian agri assets.

Mohamed Foash, founder of Farm Account
Operator-credentialed

Development Director,
Baraka Feed.

Mohamed Foash ran feed-mill development for one of Egypt's largest integrated poultry operators. Then he founded this practice. That sequence matters.

"I tracked FCR, mortality, feed cost per kilo, and water-use efficiency across multiple sites. I knew what those numbers should look like before I saw them on any spreadsheet."

"When a Saudi family office hired us to audit their $500K Egyptian poultry investment, we used the same operational benchmarks. We identified −38% unnecessary FX exposure in the first month. The family council read the report in 12 minutes."

Five things we own.
No one else does.

Five content and methodology territories that we publish, defend, and improve quarterly. Each one comes from operational experience that pre-dates our audit practice. Each one is unanswerable by Big4 or local Egyptian CPA firms.

Pillar 01

The FCR Audit

Operational benchmarking Gulf LPs cannot get elsewhere. We track FCR variance against the targets the founder set inside Baraka Feed — and tell you what your manager is hiding or missing.

Pillar 02

FX Exposure Translated

EGP volatility translated into board-readable USD/SAR/AED impact. Monthly tracker. Hedge recommendations on Advisory tier. The −38% improvement on the Saudi case lives here.

Pillar 03

The 18-Day Onboarding

Documented sequence from engagement letter signature to first board pack delivered. Verified on a Saudi family office mandate. Replicable across sectors and governorates.

Pillar 04

The Board-Pack Standard

What institutional-grade agricultural reporting looks like in Egypt. Monthly P&L, 12 KPIs, risk register, strategic recommendations — designed for a 15-minute family council read.

The Operator's Quarterly

"What Egyptian Agriculture Owes Gulf Capital — and What It Doesn't." A frank ~50-page operational assessment of 4 sectors, 6 governorates, and the 3 numbers every LP should read before deploying. Released September 2026.

What happens
if something goes wrong.

The objection that kills 80% of Gulf-Egypt advisory deals isn't price or expertise. It's "what's my recourse?" Here's our answer — surfaced, not buried.

1

Named CPA partner

Our financial outputs are reviewed and signed by a licensed Egyptian CPA office. Compliance documentation package available on request before engagement letter — trade registration, CPA office name, registration number, sample redacted engagement structure. Your compliance officer reviews before any commitment.

2

Service Level Agreement

Defined deliverables, delivery dates by the 10th of each month, escalation paths. SLA terms negotiated as part of engagement letter. No "best efforts" language.

3

DIFC / ADGM arbitration

Engagement letters include optional DIFC or ADGM arbitration clauses for Gulf-based clients. Globally enforceable. Faster and more impartial than Egyptian-only jurisdiction for cross-border disputes.

4

Named account manager

From day 1, you have a named account manager — not a support ticket queue. Founder Mohamed Foash on personal escalation for any issue. WhatsApp + phone + email reachable in your time zone.

5

Continuity infrastructure

Two physical offices (Sadat City HQ + Hadayek El-Ahram branch), 3 senior team members redundantly trained on each active mandate. No single-person dependency on report delivery. Engagement letters include continuity terms in case of force majeure.

Gulf mandates start at
$3,000 / month.

USD-denominated, scope-based. Engagement letter required before retainer begins. Scope agreed during the initial 30-minute briefing — no retainer signed without alignment on deliverables and SLA.

Five real objections.
No hedging.

Are you a real firm or a freelancer with a website?
Farm Account is a registered Egyptian agricultural accounting practice under the UPSkill Group. Our financial outputs are reviewed by a named Egyptian CPA office (disclosed in your engagement letter). We have a Sadat City HQ and a Hadayek El-Ahram branch — both physical, both staffed. Our founder Mohamed Foash is publicly identifiable; his operational background at Baraka Feed is verifiable. Compliance officers can request our trade registration certificate, tax registration, and CPA partner documentation as part of engagement DD.
Can you produce IFRS-compatible reporting?
Our monthly board packs follow IFRS-equivalent structures — accrual basis, fair-value adjustments where applicable, segmented reporting by operating unit. Egypt's domestic accounting standards (EAS) reference IFRS as fallback guidance for areas EAS is silent on. For Gulf LPs whose external auditors require strict IFRS, we coordinate directly with the LP's auditor to map our outputs to their requirements. The Saudi family office case used this exact workflow with the LP's Geneva-based external auditor.
What about Zakat compliance?
We do not calculate Zakat — that's the responsibility of your Saudi/Emirati/Kuwaiti tax advisor or Sharia scholar. What we do provide: Zakat-ready reporting. Our monthly board pack includes a dedicated section showing net equity, provisions, retained earnings, and zakatable agricultural production (irrigated vs. rain-fed) — the exact inputs your Zakat advisor needs to finalize your liability. Our Sharia-compliance documentation package is available on request. Note for ZATCA-filing investors: agricultural assets are zakatable at 5% (irrigated) or 10% (rain-fed) — we segment production accordingly.
What happens if there's a dispute?
Our engagement letters include optional DIFC or ADGM arbitration clauses. Both forums are globally enforceable and institutionally recognized by Saudi, Emirati, and Kuwaiti family office compliance teams. Your legal team selects the forum during engagement drafting — we sign what you need.
Can you handle multi-currency reporting?
Yes. Monthly board packs are produced with EGP-native operational figures + USD-equivalent at month-end fixing rate + SAR/AED equivalents in a separate appendix if requested. FX exposure is reported as a dedicated section. For Saudi family offices, we use the SAMA reference rate. For UAE, the CBUAE rate. For institutional clients with internal FX policies, we adapt to your standard. Forward contracts and natural hedging recommendations included for Tier 02+ engagements.

Country-specific
mandates.

Each Gulf market has distinct family office structures, regulatory expectations, and capital flow patterns. We start with deep specificity, not generic GCC coverage.
