Al Ghurair is one of the largest diversified family business groups in the Middle East, with operations in seven distinct industry sectors: foods, resources, properties, construction, energy, mobility and ventures. With a grassroots heritage in the United Arab Emirates spanning more six decades, Al Ghurair is woven into the very fabric of the nation since 1960, as a small trading business, when pearl diving and fishing were still the mainstays of the economy.
