From a bold vision in 2009 to a global powerhouse in 2025, Centro has transformed the landscape of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and Customer Experience (CX) solutions. Founded by industry pioneer Hesham Farag in Fairfax, Virginia, Centro was built on the belief that outsourcing should be more than just a cost-saving tactic; it should be a strategic advantage that elevates brands, enhances customer journeys, and fuels business growth.
A Legacy of Expansion, Evolution, and Global Reach
Centro’s meteoric rise began with a single office in the U.S., but it wasn’t long before the company made its mark on the world stage. Just a year after launching, Centro expanded to Cairo, Egypt, unlocking access to a rich talent pool and introducing multilingual support services for its growing global clientele.
By 2015, that global footprint increased as Centro planted its flag in Manila, Philippines, strengthening its 24/7 delivery capability across time zones.
The opening of an advanced facility in Winchester, Virginia, in 2016 added another dimension, proving that Centro wasn’t just expanding; it was redefining what it means to be a remarkable outsourcing partner.
Outpacing the Industry with Innovative Services
Centro’s growth story doesn’t stop at geography; it’s about evolution. Anticipating the digital shift, Centro broadened its services in 2021 to offer digital transformation, data intelligence, and end-to-end customer experience solutions, ensuring companies don’t just navigate disruption, they lead it.
In 2022, Centro unveiled a futuristic Customer Experience Center in El-Gouna, Egypt, a hub that reimagines service delivery with innovation at its core. By 2023, Centro’s strategic expansion into Dubai and Riyadh unlocked new opportunities across the Middle East, cementing its status as a preferred outsourcing partner for enterprises with bold ambitions in fast-growing markets.
Powered by Recognition, Driven by Purpose
In 2025, Centro CDX earned a spot on the prestigious IAOP Global Outsourcing 100 list for the third time in a row, an acknowledgment of its relentless commitment to performance, innovation, and client success. This industry recognition reflects a clear truth: Centro delivers more than services; it adds strategic value to its clients worldwide.
With a renewed mission to empower businesses through scalable, innovative solutions, Centro remains steadfast in its commitment to cultivating a culture that nurtures talent, upholds excellence, and delivers tangible results across industries and borders.
Today, Centro stands as a trusted global leader with operations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia Pacific, serving high-growth sectors such as healthcare, e-commerce, digital services, and CX management.
Centro’s journey is regularly evolving, characterized by continuous growth and adaptability as it embraces the future of Business Process Outsourcing, Digital Transformation, and Healthcare.
