Group Overview

The Group was founded in late 1969 by Ghanem bin Saeed Matar Al Suwaidi, may he rest in peace. Its journey began with the supply of petroleum products and the chartering of vessels to transport oil from international refineries to customers worldwide. Since then, the Group has continued to develop its maritime fleet, expand its global presence and diversify into real estate development, construction, education, financial and service-sector investments, alongside a range of investment activities around the world.

Today, the Group continues that journey with a renewed vision and creative thinking, led by talented and ambitious young Emiratis who combine inherited experience with modern knowledge. They pursue development, innovation and promising investment opportunities, guided by a commitment to corporate governance and responsibility towards society and future generations.

As a diversified Emirati family investment group, Ghanem Al Suwaidi Holdings continues to strengthen its presence in vital sectors including real estate, contracting, maritime shipping, energy, trading and education, alongside other investments and projects that support the national economy and diversify sources of growth.

We believe that true success is measured not only by the scale of our investments, but also by the positive, lasting impact we make on society and the opportunities and values we build for future generations.
