Who We Are

About

With years of experience and a results-focused approach, we empower businesses to navigate complexity and achieve their goals.

Message from Our Founder:

I am Khaled Elsharkasi, the founder and CEO of American Libyan Gateway Logistics & Trade. Born in Benghazi, Libya, and based in the United States, I launched this company to serve as a trusted link between American industries and Libya’s evolving economic landscape. With my experience and understanding of business—and my firsthand knowledge of both countries—I recognized the need for a logistics and trade partner capable of operating reliably on both sides of the Atlantic.

Why Libya / Why Now?

Libya is undergoing a transformative development phase. With over $1 billion allocated by the Fund for Development and Reconstruction of Libya (FDRL), American companies have a rare opportunity to participate in rebuilding healthcare systems, infrastructure, and economic trade routes. And this is just the beginning — additional investments and sector-specific opportunities are actively unfolding, creating long-term potential for U.S.–Libya collaboration. Did you know?
