The Beginning The greatest event in our Nation's modern history took place during this period with the formation of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This period also marked the start of our journey with the establishment of the Makkah Textile Business. Hydrocarbon discoveries made in the late 1930s would change life in the newly formed nation, forever.

During a pivotal period, the Saudi Economy underwent historic and extensive changes driven by the discovery of unparalleled oil reserves and rapid development. These shifts also led to significant lifestyle transformations across the Kingdom. The Bugshan Family, fueled by ambition, global networks, and local insights, redirected their efforts toward attracting prominent consumer brands to the Saudi market. Notably, they forged enduring partnerships with international giants like Bridgestone, solidifying their position as the world’s longest-standing Bridgestone distributor.

In the midst of a thriving population and rapid urbanization

spurred by economic prosperity, the Family honed its focus on

the burgeoning Real Estate sector during the nascent stages of

development in the Kingdom. This strategic pivot gave rise to a

vast portfolio of iconic landmarks and premium real estate

properties, enhancing the architectural landscape across the

Western Region of Saudi Arabia.

The '90s saw the world in flux, with shifting geopolitics and swift economic shifts. It was a time calling for rejuvenation in key areas such as infrastructure, construction, and security. METCO emerged during this era, diving into these vital sectors with strategic initiatives aimed at bolstering the Kingdom’s capacity to navigate these tumultuous times. Concurrently, with an eye on the horizon, the Food and Beverage sector also garnered focus, culminating in a significant investment in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This move introduced the local production of international consumer brands within the Kingdom’s borders.

Saudi Bugshan, a dynamic family-owned enterprise, is broadening its horizons with the creation of specialized subsidiaries. Arkan Mobility Company is innovating in the tire trade sector, while Roya Alfaris has become the trusted distributor of SAILUN tires across Saudi Arabia. On the administrative front, Anfal Administrative Company offers essential HR, Finance, and IT services to support the conglomerate’s subsidiaries. Complementing these, Taqarub provides comprehensive logistics services, ensuring seamless operations within the Saudi Bugshan ecosystem. These strategic expansions reflect Saudi Bugshan’s commitment to diversifying its portfolio and enhancing its offerings in the region.
