Who Are We AAG

Who We Are

AAG’s story begins along the trading routes of the Arabian Peninsula, shaped by generations who navigated change through resilience, adaptability, and enterprise. Since its formal establishment in 1967, the Group has grown steadily, learning, pivoting, and expanding alongside the region’s transformation from a trading port into a global business hub.

Over time, AAG evolved into a diversified Group operating across six core industries, with teams across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Qatar. Today, our work reflects decades of experience built through operating at scale, refining processes, and responding to shifting business landscapes.

Our focus is firmly on the future, strengthening our core businesses, expanding into new opportunities, and continuing to build organisations that are ready for what comes next. Guided by long-term thinking and a commitment to responsible growth, AAG continues to move forward with confidence across markets, industries, and communities.

Our Presence

AAG has established a strong and trusted presence across the Middle East, anchored in the UAE and extending to Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Qatar. Since its founding in 1967, the Group has steadily expanded its footprint by building resilient businesses across six strategic sectors, including Solutions & Trading, Distribution, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Services, and Investments.

With a workforce of over 500 professionals, AAG operates through well-governed entities supported by local expertise, regional partnerships, and a deep understanding of evolving market dynamics.

Guided by strong leadership and values rooted in authenticity, agility, and governance, AAG continues to strengthen its regional influence while shaping future-ready businesses for generations to come.

OUR Founders

The late Mohammed Ahmed Al Abbas, Ebrahim Ahmed Al Abbas, Honorary Chairman, and Ismail Ahmed Al Abbas, Honorary Vice Chairman, are the visionary brothers whose entrepreneurial spirit and integrity laid the foundation of Al Abbas Group in 1967. Guided by values rooted in the UAE’s proud trading heritage, they built the Group on trust, hard work, and a strong belief in progress.

Their foresight transformed a trading venture into a diversified conglomerate that continues to thrive across industries and generations. Their legacy continues to shape AAG’s culture, inspiring innovation, strengthening partnerships, and upholding the values that define who we are.
