HomeOur Story

Seed of Our Foundation

Established in 1974, PICO Modern Agriculture Company was founded by the visionary, Dr. Kamel Tawfik Diab. A pioneer who explored varieties that were non-existent locally but in demand in the most premium markets globally. Dr. Kamel led the first ever cultivation of arid desert land. He also led PICO to connect with global breeders and become the first company to establish tissue culture labs in Egypt.
PICO began its innovations by boosting the Egyptian citrus industry and in order to continue this legacy, the company introduced superior seedless grapes sourced from California. Today this variety compromises 75% of Egypt’s grape export. To increase the country’s export growth opportunities, strawberry nurseries were created for the first time, which transformed their cultivation.

Today Egypt is the world’s 4th largest strawberry producer. Using advanced technology, cultivating neglected land, and effectively establishing a long lasting global relations, PICO proved to have built a promising and successful combination. Dr. Kamel’s entrepreneurial drive has passed down from one generation to the next, and as a 3rd generation family company, PICO now provides exceptional, high-grade produce all over the world.
