Chairman's message

Witnessing Qatar’s remarkable economic development has been an exciting experience. We are fortunate to live in one of the world’s fastest growing economies, one that is characterized by increasingly diverse markets and infrastructure development. Qatar is a country blessed not only with great natural resources but with visionary leadership and, since 2008, a roadmap for economic and social prosperity in the Qatar National Vision 2030.

Al Faisal Holding has been able to contribute significantly to this growth throughout the six decades it has been operating and we will always make every effort to play our part in driving Qatar’s success and economic prosperity.

Since our modest beginnings in 1964, our resilience and ability to embrace change with an open mind has enabled us to stay true to our mission of delivering the finest quality services and products in whichever sector we operate. We believe the success and growth of our business can be attributed to the consistency of our standards and policies and to the efforts of our supportive local and international partners. We are familiar with the challenges faced by family businesses in particular, which represent a critical component of economies across the globe, and we work closely with these businesses to help them prosper. Furthermore, the success of our highly selective recruitment processes ensure our highly qualified staff and management are able to perform in accordance with international best practice standards.

Over the years, our commitment to professional ethics and quality has evolved into a set of corporate standards and practices which we use as our benchmark for excellence. This approach to providing the highest level of quality in all of our endeavors has delivered returns at every step of the company’s development. Today, we pride ourselves on being a trustworthy household name both in Qatar and beyond with all our businesses and employees loyally working together as one team, one family. 

As a diversified group of businesses that maintains a common commitment to rigorous international standards across its extensive range of products and services, we are uniquely well positioned to capitalize on Qatar’s growing global trade. Our list of renowned international partners is proof of our international business standing and success.

To maintain that track record, we continuously monitor and benchmark our operational performance and expansion strategy to ensure the company is constantly aligned with the country’s giant economic strides.

In parallel, we maintain a strong focus on sustainability and governance and have recently introduced several internal initiatives to ensure the continued success and sustainability of our business. For example, we have adapted our operating model, revised our investment strategy guidelines, and further strengthened our rigorous corporate governance protocols. Aided by our professional standards, thoroughly tested policies and with the support of dedicated team members, we will continue to develop and align our business and investment strategy to the major developments that are rapidly taking place at home and around the world.

All this is guided by the superior vision of H.H. The Emir, Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al- Thani which will ensure that Qatar will steadily continue to become one of the region’s major economic powers. Al Faisal Holding is as determined as ever to play our part in our country’s promising future.

H.E. Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani
Chairman & CEO of Al Faisal Holding
