TNC now in Saudi Arabia
Tarek Nour, Ehab Shalaby, Ahmed Tarek, Tarek Makhlouf & Karim Nour just returned from a business trip in Saudi Arabia to finalize the partnership between TNC (Tarek Nour Communications) and FULLSTOP.

FULLSTOP is the next creative independent advertising agency established in 2002 by Saudi talents with a growing portfolio of both national and international brands in Saudi with offices in Jeddah & Riyadh.

Brands like Radwa Farms, Rana Hot Chili Peppers, and the Saudi Supreme Commission for Tourism, Dar Al Hekma College, Saudi Post, Dr. Erfan & Bagedo Hospitals, Al Hasana, Al Nahdi Factory, Swatch, and Honda.

Being provocative and having a daring attitude makes FULLSTOP stand out. The word STOP is not just limited to traffic lights and punctuation marks, nor is it just about standing still; it is the power to make a statement. FULLSTOP believes that once you notice quality, you STOP.

In January Tarek Nour gave a speech to over 900 advertising executives at the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce Assembly on January 29, 2008.
