Looking for the right partner for an existing GCC → LatAm trade operation

Looking for the right capital partner for a short-cycle trade opportunity between the GCC and Colombia and other LatAm countries.

This is not a startup or “idea stage” business.
It’s an existing operation already importing and distributing Arabic perfumes into Colombia, with:
- 250+ active clients
- 35+ registered products
- Direct factory relationships in Saudi/UAE
- Existing monthly sales

The current opportunity comes from the logistics situation in the region.

Most normal shipping routes are expensive or heavily disrupted right now. We’ve found a workable alternative route via Oman that materially changes unit economics.

The business is already profitable shipping by air.
Moving to container shipping significantly reduces logistics cost per unit while keeping the same selling prices in Colombia.

Looking for someone comfortable with:
- short-cycle opportunities
- trust-based/private deals
- real businesses over pitch decks

90-day cycle.

Dubai-based preferred, but open to calls/Zoom.

Happy to connect privately and share more context if relevant.
