Technology, Innovation and professionalism in business

Established in 1979 by a group of prominent UAE nationals, the Al-Ahlia Group has a vision – to bring technology, innovation and professionalism into business in the UAE and benefit all stakeholders.

The joint efforts of Al-Ahlia shareholders helped Coca-Cola enter the Middle East market in 1986 after a gap of over 30 years. This spirit of perseverance helped Al-Ahlia establish joint ventures and business relationships with multi-national corporations like Halliburton, Rolls Wood Group, Procor Sulphur Services Inc., Vetco Gray, Sharp Corporation and others. The Group also pioneered the concept of modern cafes and supermarkets in the UAE back in the early ‘80s.

Today, Al-Ahlia is a diversified, professionally managed large business house with a turnover that exceeds US $ 200 million, over 1,000 employees and investments in assets to the tune of US $ 100 million.

The success of the Group can be attributed to the wise leadership of the Chairman of the Board – a full-time executive, the guidance and support of our shareholders and the tireless efforts and dedication of its professional managers.

Al-Ahlia Group is now poised for aggressive growth and expansion as a part of its long term business strategy, based on spectacular achievements in the past in the form of constant increase in profits, available liquidity and an over-achieving workforce.
