The Group's journey since its establishment in 1980 reflects both the foresight of our founders and the astounding progress of the UAE. The Group is built on the founders' dream of establishing a fully integrated construction sector group that would provide the highest standards of service quality to public and private sector clients.

It has been a journey of sustained growth, learning and development, driven by our management team and the unrelenting efforts of our employees at all levels. The first phase was from 1980 to 1990 when the founders, J R Gangaramani and Adel Saleh, successfully led the company to recognition within the UAE as a leading contracting company.

The Group expanded from 1990 onward with the creation of subsidiary companies in allied sectors such as readymix concrete, steel structures, aluminium, electromechanical works, and property development, to name a few. It was during this fourteen year period that the Group succeeded in contributing to some of the UAE's most significant projects, such as the 79-story Al Attar Tower, the 42-floor AL Waleed Tower, the Sheikh Zayed bridge, The Palm island, Al Garhoud bridge and the ADWEA Research Centre.

The future promises a multitude of opportunities for the Group and its subsidiaries. As the UAE enters a period of unprecedented economic expansion, over AED 100 billion worth of new public and private sector projects are planned in the commercial, residential, industrial and leisure sectors. The Group is fully equipped to meet its clients' demands for quality of work, completion schedules, competitive project values and inspired solutions. We are confident that the Group's reputation will continue to be confirmed and enhanced as we meet each new challenge.
