Our history

FOUNDER'S MESSAGE

Al-Ghurair Investment was founded on the basis of pure business passion. From the very start, we imbedded a sense of pragmatism in the culture of the group. It is this pragmatism that has not only seen us through the most difficult of times but also allowed us to achieve greater success during times of economic growth.

Our journey from an investment house to an industrial complex and then on to a conglomerate compromising of trading, industrial, distribution, contracting and service industries has been with its fair share of trials and tribulations but we can honestly say that today our 6500 employees are richer in experience than their counterparts.

The foundations of our group are rock solid. These foundations, for all our companies, have been cast in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia but today all our companies look at the world as their marketplace. In this age of globalization, we continue to grow at breathtaking speed.

Speed is a virtue that we stand by at all times. The successful induction of our next generation into the business has allowed us to retain the advantages of remaining a family concern but at the same time enabled us to act with speed in the hiring of top grade professionals.

Our group has been built on the premise of sheer hard work. We have progressed this far by believing in our values and never shying away from putting in the effort needed to grow any business. Our values: Excellence, Transparency, Compassion, Honesty, Empowerment and Discipline are inculcated in every one of our employees.

For us, the journey has been a long one but we see it as just the beginning of bigger things to come. Our next generation is now fully equipped to take the Group forward and to unimaginable heights.
