Travel is an integral part of human life. There are countries on the globe that everyone wants to visit at least once in their lifetime, which includes Saudi Arabia. It is a country that is known as the Gem in the Middle-East which includes two of the holy places for Muslims – Mecca and Madinah. There are other places such as the wonderful landscapes of AL Ula and Hegra, the wonderful sand dunes of the Rub’ al Khali desert, a vibrant culture, several diving spots to see aquatic life, and the bustling cities of Riyadh and Jeddah. However, if you have already noted the places to visit, then all you need is a reliable and reputed car rental (transportation) provider that you can trust unconditionally. Today, a name that everyone seems to remember, as far as renting four-wheeler vehicles is concerned, is Budget Saudi Arabia.
Budget Saudi Arabia has got multiple branches in Saudi Arabia, and has garnered popularity for long-distance, multiple-day tours.

A customer-centric company may have the best services in the globe, but it needs a financial wizard to design the best money and wealth management programs for sustaining the market. In this era of fierce business competition, a transportation company should have a Chief Financial Officer who has the perfect business acumen to understand market volatility, display patience in mergers and acquisitions, and lay the foundation for financial empowerment. Budget Saudi Arabia’s CFO, Dr. Mohammed Ravish Tatli is well-known in the business world as the key person responsible for listing Budget Saudi Arabia in the Saudi Stock Exchange. His efforts in putting the company on the global map have not gone unnoticed, and he has also received the reputed title of Best CFO in Merger & Acquisition in Saudi Arabia 2024 from World Business Outlook.
Another person who has gained a name for himself from the Budget Saudi Arabia stable is Anil Mathew Abraham, VP Operations, Sales & Marketing.

Armed with his 18 years of experience in various media companies on the hard print, satellite and electronic media, his business acumen proved instrumental in gaining success in the management of SBUs and marketing campaigns to promote business growth. To commemorate his exceptional skills in marketing, World Business Outlook has awarded him the title of Most Efficient Marcom Leader in Saudi Arabia 2024.
