BACKGROUND, HISTORY AND CORE VALUES
The AK Almoayed Group (AKAG) started more than a hundred years ago as a traditional family-run trading firm, supplying timber to the construction industry in Bahrain. From its humble origins the company now has a diverse portfolio of business operations ranging from building material distribution, general trading, steel fabrication, portable office manufacturing, specialized construction products as well as shipping agencies and maritime services. The last major transformation in the company occurred with the passing away of Mr.Abdulrahman Khalil Almoayed. Ownership moved down to his heirs and his son Tariq became the first Chairman, but he too regrettably died soon after his father. The current Chairman, Khalid Almoayed, has led the company since 1999, aided ably by his siblings, nephews and children in the various areas of interest.
Various subsidiary companies reflect our desire to diversify in many directions, with exclusive distribution rights to an extended and growing inventory of specialized products, including pumps, valves and control systems for industrial applications, sports and fitness equipment, playground furniture, paint supplies etc. Backed by a strong reputation for maintaining the highest standards of quality for goods and services, our focused and dedicated team has initiated a number of long-standing partnerships with regional and international conglomerates throughout the region. Whilst the list of partners represents the cream of the industry, the Group continues its efforts in building relationships that extend to new frontiers of business and incorporating the latest on the technology front, giving added value to the national exchequer by way of environmental friendliness and reduced carbon foot print.
The company firmly believes in being a professional, multicultural and an equal opportunity organization, with a philosophy based on the underlying premise, "that people are its greatest asset and that it is people who innovate, invent and engineer the efficiencies that make a successful business". The group has always managed to maintain a high degree of professionalism, whilst at the same time retaining the core values and objectives of a traditional family owned organisation. With the advent of the new generation into the business arena, the company is now poised for major growth in new areas of business, hitherto untouched but with potential to generate more job opportunities that can contribute to the national cause.
