About Us

Built on trust. Driven by global ambition.

KAABAD Global Brokerage & Trade Services connects Somali and regional businesses with international markets — and helps the world do business in Somalia.

Who We Are

Your partner in international trade.

KAABAD Global Brokerage & Trade Services is a privately owned international brokerage and trade facilitation company based in Bosaso, the commercial capital of Puntland and one of Somalia’s most important seaports.

Founded by Mohamed Mohamud Ismail and registered with the Puntland Ministry of Commerce, KAABAD was created to make cross-border trade simpler, safer, and more profitable for the businesses we serve. We act as a trusted intermediary — identifying opportunities, verifying counterparties, negotiating terms, and coordinating every step until goods are delivered and deals are complete.

Our clients include importers, exporters, wholesalers, manufacturers, contractors, and investors who value a partner with deep regional insight, an international outlook, and an uncompromising commitment to integrity.

Trade commodities including grain, coffee, sesame, and steel

A Message from the Founder

“We exist to open doors.”

Somalia has always been a trading nation, and Bosaso has long been a gateway between Africa, Arabia, and Asia. I founded KAABAD to carry that tradition forward with modern professionalism — so that our clients can trade with the world confidently, and the world can discover the opportunities here.

Every relationship we build rests on honesty, discretion, and results. That is our promise to every client and partner.
