I’m Raki Benchaou — founder of COD Network, investor, and builder of opportunities for ambitious entrepreneurs across the Arab world.
I grew up believing that to succeed, you needed to come from a well-known family or graduate from a prestigious university. I had neither.
But I had work ethic, ambition, and a hunger to build.
Starting from scratch, I launched COD Network — a company that today helps sellers in Morocco and across the Arab world generate over $100M per year selling globally.
Along the way, I realized my mission was bigger than building businesses: it’s about proving that anyone, regardless of their background, can achieve success with vision and hard work.
Today, as an entrepreneur and investor, I focus on supporting bold founders, empowering untapped markets, and opening doors where others only see walls.
