In the early 20th century, along the ancient alleys of Al-Hasa arose an ambitious entrepreneur and visionary, Sheikh Hamad Bin Mohammed Aljabr. Against all odds and with the aid of his father, this man started a business in agricultural real estate development and production, which thereafter came to be a major turning point in the family’s history.

In 1952, the sons of Sheikh Hamad; Abdulaziz, Mohammed and Abdullatif, carried on his legacy and embarked on a journey into the world of commerce with the establishment of a small company trading in foodstuffs. Since then, the company has grown into a sophisticated corporation, with interests and endeavors in a number of widely differentiated businesses.

This growth was hinted at when the company first launched into international activity back in 1956, in the city of Al-Khobar. Today, Aljabr Holding is a multi-line conglomerate maintaining a well-diversified portfolio invested in various sectors such as Automobile, Banking and Finance, Real Estate, Oil & Gas Services, Contracting, Home Appliances, Food & Beverages, Laundry & Dry Cleaning, Light Industry and Agriculture. As time passed, the company expanded their offices and distribution networks to be present across Saudi Arabia and the Arabian Gulf region. To accommodate the rapid development, Aljabr Holding, along with its subsidiaries and associates, proudly employs over 6,000 people.
