Mercury (or Mercurius in Latin) is one of the most important and dynamic gods in Roman mythology.
Fast on his feet and quick with his words, he’s best known as the god of money, trade, communication, poetry, travel, luck and boundaries.
Whether it was delivering messages between gods or or zipping across borders faster than the eye could follow, Mercury was always on the move, clever, charming, and impossible to pin down.

His name is thought to come from Latin words like merx (merchandise), mercari (to trade), and merces (wages), all closely tied to commerce and exchange.
But Mercury’s role went beyond business. He was also associated with crossing borders, both physical and symbolic, serving as a bridge between worlds, from earth to the heavens and beyond. Our kind of Super Hero!

Inspired by Mercury, MEDCO’s character channels elements of the god’s appearance and powers: Tremendous speed, a winged mask and boots; modern echoes of Mercury’s iconic helmet and sandals.
He is an Energetic Doer; cheerful, full of positive energy, and always on the move.
Born in Beirut, Lebanon in 1960, he is proud of his roots (Ets. GNC 1910). He loves Lebanon, its people, sharing with the community and is always ready to host, boost, fill energy and recharge.
His hobbies reflect his values, blending a love for the environment with a deep connection to culture and creativity.
He is passionate about eco-friendly products, innovation and cars, while also embracing eco-tourism as a way to explore responsibly.
His roots shine through in his love for Lebanese food and music, making his interests a true reflection of who he is.
