Our Story

A journey of growth Pride in our heritage

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has, time and time again, proven to be a land of opportunity. The growth of the nation brought about many successful business stories. One such humble story is that of the Basamh Group.

Near a century ago, a man by the name of Ahmed Saeed Basamh saw an opportunity in the region. He worked his way from a store employee to an owner and in 1948, along with his brothers and sons, established Basamh Trading Company. BTC quickly became a trusted distributor for market leading brands

Our journey is fueled by passion, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Since our inception, we have charted a remarkable path, transforming from a mere vision into a thriving force in the industry.
