The Origins of SimulTrayd: A Story of Visionaries on the Trade Routes

In the ever-changing landscape of global trade, there are pioneers who dare to imagine a better way, individuals and teams who challenge conventions and envision new paradigms. The story of SimulTrayd, an innovative platform democratizing export-import arbitrage through cutting-edge AI, is rooted in the collaborative spirit of such trailblazers. This journey isn’t just about technology; it’s about the relationships and determination that have shaped the platform into what it is today.

A Seed Planted in Friendship
The origins of SimulTrayd trace back to conversations and partnerships that spanned continents. On the bustling trade routes of international commerce, individuals like Song Hai Jiang (Jim), a visionary in equipment manufacturing and distribution, and A. Hakeem Wahed, Vice President and Chief of Trade, a passionate advocate for secure and fair trade, laid the groundwork for what would eventually become SimulTrayd.
In a recent WhatsApp exchange, Jim reminisced about hosting partners at his factory in 2019, before expanding to a new, state-of-the-art facility in 2022. The pride in his achievements—importing mica from Africa, exporting high-quality equipment, and fostering distributors worldwide—echoed the ethos of SimulTrayd: relentless progress and unwavering commitment to empowering global trade. Hakeem’s words encapsulated the shared mission, “We are together trying to make the world a better place for all importers, exporters, and arbitragers by the grace of Almighty God.”

The Dream of Democratization
For centuries, trade has been a realm dominated by large corporations and elite networks, leaving smaller players grappling with inefficiencies and barriers to entry. The founders of SimulTrayd envisioned a different world—one where trade is accessible to everyone, from seasoned professionals to newcomers working from home. This vision of inclusion is what drives the platform’s use of artificial intelligence to uncover and automate arbitrage opportunities.
“We have so much history and so many friends on the trade routes,” a SimulTrayd representative reflected during the exchange. “We are moving into a technological advancement like nothing seen before.” The sentiment captures the balance between honoring the rich traditions of trade and embracing the transformative power of technology.

A Global “A-Team”
At the heart of SimulTrayd’s success is its diverse and dedicated team. Hakeem, as Vice President and Chief of Trade, acknowledged the “A-team”—including Will, Luis, Michelle, Steve, Jorge, Richard, and their web development team—highlights the collaborative effort that drives the platform forward. These individuals bring together expertise from various corners of the world, unified by a shared belief in creating a safer, more secure platform for conducting business.
The camaraderie extends beyond the core team to long-standing partners like Jim, who expressed his gratitude and support for SimulTrayd’s mission. These bonds, forged over years of working together, represent the foundation of trust and mutual respect upon which SimulTrayd is built.

Looking Ahead
SimulTrayd is not merely a platform; it is a movement to rewrite the narrative of global trade. As the platform prepares to launch its app, it invites all visionaries, importers, exporters, and arbitragers to join the journey. The future promises unprecedented technological advancements, from AI to quantum computing, but the core values of fairness, transparency, and collaboration remain steadfast.
“Together, we can achieve the impossible,” the founders of SimulTrayd affirm. And as history shows, the impossible has always been made possible by those bold enough to dream and determined enough to act.
