Journalist Hassan Galayd recently visited one of the Dahabshiil service centers in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). He met with Dahabshiil customers, including Somalis and people from all over the world.
Clients sent and received money from Al-Dahab centers, benefiting from the services provided by the international company Dahabshiil, which is available in almost all countries around the globe.
“Dahabshiil is a successful company. During the struggles period when people were displaced, the people lived on the Dahabshiil remittance economy services. Now it has become a bank that operates in all countries around the World,” said Jamac Kara’in, a Dahabshiil client and businessman.
Dahabshiil is a Somali funds transfer company and is the largest money-transfer business in Africa. It’s headquartered in Burao Somaliland. Formed in 2004, the firm operates from over 24,000 outlets and employs more than 2,000 people across 126 countries.
