Who we are
Best Economic Operators was founded by Adam Isaacs Rae and Monir El Azzouzi, who together have decades of experience in medical device Quality and Regulatory Affairs.
Over the years, we kept seeing the same problem: manufacturers were choosing economic operators based on reputation, convenience, or personal relationships - not on whether they truly met regulatory best-practice standards.
We created Best Economic Operators to bring clarity, trust, and independent assessment to the process, helping manufacturers find compliant partners and giving operators a way to demonstrate their competence.
