Alushibe Holding Group تعتزم إدخال 12 علامة تجارية عالمية في قطاع المطاعم إلى ليبيا بحلول عام 2028

 

أحمد جادالله يوقّع اتفاقية امتياز رئيسي حصرية مع العلامة التجارية التركية MADO: استثمار بقيمة 7 ملايين دولار، وافتتاح سبعة مقاهٍ وتوفير 350 فرصة عمل في المرحلة الأولى؛ وافتتاح فرع رئيسي بمساحة 1,000 متر مربع في بنغازي خلال الربع الأول من عام 2027



أعلنت Alushibe Holding Group اليوم عن خططها لإدخال 12 علامة تجارية عالمية في قطاع الأغذية والمشروبات إلى ليبيا بحلول عام 2028، من خلال قسم Retail & Destinations التابع لها. وتبدأ هذه المبادرة بتوقيع اتفاقية امتياز رئيسي حصرية مع MADO، العلامة التجارية التركية المتخصصة في المثلجات والحلويات، التي تأسست عام 1850.


ووقّع الاتفاقية في قهرمان مرعش بتاريخ 13 أكتوبر 2026 كلٌّ من أحمد جادالله، مؤسس Alushibe Holding Group  ورئيس مجلس إدارتها، وMehmet Sait Kanbur، رئيس مجلس إدارة  MADO. وبموجب الاتفاقية، تحصل Alushibe على الحقوق الحصرية لتطوير علامة MADO وتشغيل فروعها في ليبيا، التي تصبح بذلك الدولة السادسة والثلاثين التي تتوسع إليها العلامة التجارية. وستستثمر Alushibe  مبلغ 7 ملايين دولار أمريكي في المرحلة الأولى، التي تشمل افتتاح سبعة مقاهٍ وتوفير 350 فرصة عمل، بدءًا من بنغازي، ثم طرابلس ومدن رئيسية أخرى.


ومن المقرر افتتاح أول فرع لعلامة MADO في ليبيا خلال الربع الأول من عام 2027، في موقع رئيسي تتجاوز مساحته 1,000 متر مربع بمنطقة الهواري في بنغازي، داخل مبنى مملوك لشركة  Alushibe. وسيكون الفرع الثاني أحد أبرز المتاجر الرئيسية في  District Mall، وهو مجمّع تجاري تطوّره Alushibe في بنغازي على مساحة 53,000 متر مربع. ومن المتوقع افتتاح المشروع في عام 2028، ليصبح أكبر مركز تسوّق مفتوح في ليبيا، بمساحة إجمالية قابلة للتأجير تبلغ 25,000 متر مربع.


وستشمل العلامات التجارية الاثنتا عشرة قطاعات المقاهي والمخابز والمطاعم غير الرسمية ومطاعم الخدمة السريعة، لتنضم إلى شبكة المنشآت التابعة للقسم، والتي تضم ثلاثة مراكز تجارية وثلاثة فنادق وأكثر من 215 متجرًا في مختلف أنحاء ليبيا، بمساحة إجمالية تتجاوز 2.15 مليون قدم مربعة.


وقال أحمد جادالله: "تُعدّ تركيا من أبرز الشركاء التجاريين لليبيا، وستُكتب المرحلة المقبلة من هذه العلاقة على أيدي مجموعات القطاع الخاص القادرة على إدخال علامات تجارية عالمية إلى السوق الليبية، مع الالتزام بالمعايير الدولية. وقد أمضينا عقودًا في بناء هذه القدرات، من البنية التحتية اللازمة لاستقبال هذه العلامات، إلى الانضباط التشغيلي ورأس المال المطلوب. وعلى مدى 176 عامًا، رسّخت MADO سمعتها انطلاقًا من قهرمان مرعش. وستتولى فرق عمل ليبية تجسيد تجربة هذه العلامة التجارية على أرض الواقع، لأن نجاح هذا البرنامج لن يُقاس بما سيتمكن الليبيون من شرائه فحسب، بل أيضًا بما سيكونون قادرين على بنائه".


وستوفّر المرحلة الأولى 350 فرصة عمل في مجالات تشغيل المقاهي وسلاسل التوريد والإدارة. وستخضع فرق العمل الليبية لتدريبات تتوافق مع معايير MADO قبل افتتاح كل فرع.

LeBron James Deepens Commitment to WHOOP, Expanding 11-Year Relationship

BOSTON - Thursday, 29. October 2026


One of the first 100 WHOOP members, James strengthens his commitment to the human performance company as the two partner to advance the future of performance, health, and longevity.



(BUSINESS WIRE) -- WHOOP, the human performance brand, today announced that basketball legend LeBron James has joined as a global ambassador, formalizing a relationship that began more than a decade ago. One of the company's earliest members and now an investor, James will partner with WHOOP to champion the importance of sustained athletic excellence and everyday vitality.


James began wearing WHOOP in 2015, long before continuous health monitoring became mainstream. Today, on the 23rd anniversary of his NBA debut, the 41-year-old continues to compete at the highest level of professional basketball. His decision to formalize the partnership reflects an 11-year relationship rooted in a shared commitment to performance, recovery, and longevity.


The expanded partnership brings together one of the world's most accomplished athletes and a company helping people take greater control of how they feel, perform, and age. Together, James and WHOOP will launch global initiatives and multimedia campaigns designed to inspire everyday athletes and consumers to invest in their body's future.


“LeBron James represents the pinnacle of performance and longevity,” said Will Ahmed, Founder and CEO of WHOOP. “He was one of the first 100 WHOOP members long before anyone had ever heard of Strain or our Recovery Score. Now, 11 years later, we’re so proud to have him as a global ambassador.”


James's commitment comes as WHOOP continues to expand beyond its roots in elite sport into personal health. Today, WHOOP serves more than 3 million members worldwide through an always-on membership that helps people understand their bodies, make better decisions, and invest in their long-term health. With continuous physiological monitoring, personalized insights, and innovations including WHOOP Age, the company is advancing its mission to unlock and inspire performance for life.


For James, the partnership reflects a philosophy that has defined his career: extraordinary performance is built through the decisions made every day, over years and decades. His commitment to training, sleep, recovery, and understanding his body has helped shape his approach to competing at the highest level into his 40s.


“I've spent my career doing everything possible to keep my body at peak performance. For the last 11 years, WHOOP has been part of that,” said LeBron James. "I know my body better today than I did at 25. I'm not trying to be great for my age. I'm trying to be great, period. That's why making this partnership official feels like a natural next step.”


That commitment is reflected in James's approach to sleep and recovery. Newly released WHOOP insights offer a glimpse into the daily habits behind his extraordinary longevity:


Top 10% of Sleepers: LeBron ranks among the top 10% on sleep efficiency across the entire WHOOP member base, demonstrating his exceptional commitment to sleep and recovery.


100% Wear Rate: LeBron has not missed a single day of WHOOP data collection in 2026, maintaining a perfect 100% wear rate throughout the year.


Sleep is Part of the Game Plan: Most known for his sleep and nap consistency, entering his 40s was no different: on his 40th birthday, James recorded 9+ hours of sleep, getting a 80%+ Green recovery.


The partnership will come to life through global marketing campaigns, content, and activations across WHOOP channels.


About WHOOP

Through a powerful 24/7 wearable with a 14-day battery life, WHOOP provides intelligent health guidance across sleep, recovery, strain, fitness, and longevity.

Alushibe Holding Group to Bring 12 Global F&B Brands to Libya by 2028

 

Ahmed Gadalla signs exclusive master franchise agreement with Türkiye's MADO: US$7 million, 7 cafés and 350 jobs in the first phase; 1,000 sq m Benghazi flagship opens Q1 2027

 

Alushibe Holding Group today announced plans to bring 12 international food-and-beverage brands to Libya by 2028 through its Retail & Destinations division, beginning with an exclusive master franchise agreement with MADO, the Turkish ice-cream and patisserie house founded in 1850.

Signed in Kahramanmaraş on 13 October 2026 by Ahmed Gadalla, Founder and Chairman of Alushibe Holding Group, and Mehmet Sait Kanbur, Chairman of MADO, the agreement grants Alushibe exclusive rights to develop and operate MADO in Libya, the brand's 36th country. Alushibe will invest US$7 million in the first phase: 7 cafés and 350 jobs, beginning in Benghazi before Tripoli and other major cities.

The first MADO in Libya, a flagship of more than 1,000 sq m in Al-Hawari, Benghazi, in an Alushibe-owned property, opens in Q1 2027. A second location will anchor District Mall, Alushibe's 53,000 sq m development in Benghazi and Libya's largest open-air mall (25,000 sq m gross leasable area), opening in 2028.

The 12 brands, spanning coffee, bakery, casual dining and quick-service restaurants, will enter the division's platform of three shopping malls, three hotels and more than 215 stores across Libya, totalling more than 2.15 million sq ft.

"Türkiye is among Libya's most important trading partners. The next chapter will be written by private groups able to carry international brands into Libya at international standards. We have spent decades building that capacity: the destinations, the operating discipline and the capital. MADO earned its name over 176 years in Kahramanmaraş. Libyan teams will deliver it, because the measure of this programme is not only what Libyans can buy, but what Libyans can build," said Ahmed Gadalla. The first phase creates 350 jobs across café operations, supply chain and management, with Libyan teams trained to MADO's standards before each opening.


About Alushibe Holding Group

Alushibe Holding Group is a diversified group headquartered in Benghazi, Libya, with an office in Dubai. Founded in 2008 by Eng. Ahmed Gadalla, it operates across consumer goods, retail and destinations, industrials, healthcare, engineering and infrastructure, and services, with more than 6,000 employees. www.alushibe.com

QKTech’s opportunity lies in combining domain expertise, agent engineering, and continuous assurance across existing systems and emerging AI workflows. The priority is to connect evaluation to production performance, strengthen human oversight, and demonstrate results against clear baselines.

SambaNova and Emergys Partner to Accelerate Enterprise Agentic AI Deployment

  


Strategic partnership combines the highest performance inference with enterprise services to accelerate agentic AI deployments.

The companies will jointly pursue opportunities across enterprise, regulated and sovereign AI markets.

 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--SambaNova, the AI chip company delivering the highest performance inference, today announced a strategic partnership with Emergys, a digital transformation services company, to accelerate the deployment of agentic AI from pilot to production for enterprise customers. Emergys will provide professional services, managed services, AI platform operations and customer success services to SambaNova customers, from first deployment through ongoing operation and optimization.





Agentic AI is driving a sharp rise in inference demand. NeoClouds, sovereign AI providers and enterprises increasingly want to serve it from capacity they control: as a cloud for their customers, in-country, or on premises. Bringing that capacity online goes beyond hardware. It takes deployment, model onboarding, capacity planning, monitoring, and round-the-clock service operations.


“Tokens are becoming a strategic resource, and more organizations want to produce them, whether to sell as a service, keep in-country, or power their own agents,” said Abhi Ingle, Chief Customer and Solutions Officer at SambaNova. “SambaNova provides the full stack inference solution optimized for energy efficiency and fast inference. Emergys gives customers a proven team to deploy SambaNova’s platform while running and managing it as a production service.”


The partnership pairs SambaNova's full-stack inference platform, built on its Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit (RDU) chips and systems, with Emergys' experience deploying and running business-critical platforms for global enterprises. Together they help customers bring an inference cloud online quickly and run it as a production service for their users and applications.


Enterprise AI in Production with SambaNova


The companies already work together. Emergys recently deployed a sovereign AI platform on SambaNova for a major energy company, extending AI assistants into job safety analysis, finance, audit and engineering services. Emergys reported that the deployment reduced costs by 40%: "We've deployed SambaNova for our clients and seen what it does for cost and speed," said Krish Prabhu, CEO of Emergys. "This partnership gives our customers the dual benefit of leveraging our Inference Engineering expertise as well as our world-class Enterprise Solutions and Data Science & AI practices – resulting in a faster path to production and meaningful business outcomes."


SambaNova and Emergys will jointly pursue enterprise, regulated and sovereign AI opportunities globally.


About Emergys


Emergys is a digital transformation services company that helps enterprises design, deploy, operate and optimize business-critical technology platforms. Combining professional services, managed services and customer success expertise, Emergys enables clients to accelerate adoption and realize sustained value from their technology investments.
