Championing diversity, professionalism, and authentic talent through visionary leadership
David Agban, co-founder of TFP Agency, has always seen the fashion industry differently. Early in his career, he noticed a gap in representation: plus-size models, hijabi models, and diverse body types were largely absent from Egypt’s modeling scene. Alongside his brother, he launched TFP with seven models, driven by a mission to protect talent, promote professionalism, and redefine industry standards.
For David, casting goes beyond looks. He seeks models with the right mindset, attitude, and energy, valuing respect and dedication as much as appearance. Whether a model is motivated by passion or money shapes how he guides them, emphasizing that diversity isn’t just visual — it’s mindset, culture, and individuality.
Over the years, David has seen the impact of his approach firsthand. Models like Jessica, who came to Egypt for two months and stayed for nearly two years while gaining opportunities abroad, exemplify TFP’s success. Long-term talents such as Gharam, Mariam Fares, Radwa, and Juliette demonstrate his commitment to nurturing careers and creating a space where models feel valued and supported.
David also understands the power of social media and storytelling in today’s industry. Platforms allow him to connect with talent globally, giving models international exposure and TFP a way to showcase authenticity and individuality across campaigns. His leadership ensures that the agency isn’t just casting faces, but building careers with purpose.
Through persistence, creativity, and fairness, David Agban continues to shape Egypt’s modeling industry. He emphasizes strong portfolios, networking, and skill-building while pushing TFP to handle major runway shows and campaigns. His vision remains clear: to empower models, celebrate diversity, and set a new standard for professionalism in Egyptian fashion.
