Egyptian automotive marketplace, Contactcars, acquires Sa3ar Technology Solutions
Contactcars.com, Egypt’s leading automotive marketplace, today announces the acquisition of Sa3ar Technology Solutions – a platform that provides car valuation technology and a dealer-specific auction platform.
Contactcars.com, a subsidiary of Contact Financial Holding, continues to evolve and look for new opportunities to provide the automotive ecosystem with innovative value-added services. With the acquisition of Sa3ar Technology, founded by Adham Hosny and Hussein Hosny, contactcars.com aims to further enhance the user experience by providing one holistic pricing tool that will cater to both the end-user and dealers allowing the market to enjoy consistent vehicle pricing. The digital auction technology, though very new to the Egyptian market, will be consolidated resulting in one dealer-specific app provided to the dealers and car traders looking to digitize the purchase and sale of used cars.
In addition to acquiring the Sa3ar platform and technology, the Sa3ar founders and team will continue to work with Contact to develop new and innovative services to bring to market.
