Who We Are

We acquire, invest in, and incubate businesses.

Almiras is a family-owned business, held by members of the Alzamil family. The group consists primarily of design, hospitality, industrial, commercial, and contracting companies. Our companies operate in the GCC countries, Africa, Italy, and the United Kingdom with over 1,500 employees combined.

Investment Philosophy

Our family invests for the long-term with deep commitment. We acquire, invest-in, and incubate businesses in select sectors that we have the ability to add value to. We put a lot of faith in entrepreneurship, growth, and the importance of employee involvement, and therefore believe in the advantages of decentralised specialisation.

Four decades of growth, commitment, and specialisation

Decentralisation

“With our trust in empowerment and driving employee passion through our decentralisation philosophy we see development and organic growth that is difficult to beat. Our philosophy of entrepreneur-driven and decentralised leadership has proven to be successful”

-Mohammed Alzamil , Chairman at Almiras

Operating Philosophy

Let Passion Drive…

We have had the privilege of building and operating architectural services since 1996. During these years, we have discovered some elements of operations that we believe are important for success; building a family with aligned motivations, loyalty, and passion; people who are given the reigns to perform on their passion.

In our role as owners, we believe that it is important to identify passion and create an environment where these people thrive and execute on their passion in a decentralised ecosystem. With our approach we have had the privilege to grow and branch out into several industries and segments.

This gives us the drive to continue giving our people the freedom to continue with their passion; stepping in when needed for advice and guidance.
