About Us

About Us

The Buhajar Group is a well established and trusted conglomerate looking to reinvigorate the business environment in Libya and the surrounding regions. The Buhajar Group was founded by the Buhajar family, who started business in the 1940’s, and now operates in North Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, and is actively working to expand into other regions. The family started in the textile trade and then successfully expanded into high end jewelry which laid a solid foundation for their business to diversify and grow upon. The Group has since expanded into the key sectors of fashion, food and beverages, sports and wellness, trading, real estate development, financial services, media, healthcare, and logistics under the guidance of Abdurrauf Buhajar, the CEO and third generation Buhajar in the family business.
Quality goods and services that are in accordance with international standards coupled with outstanding customer service that is in tune with local traditions and an unshakable set of values has propelled the Group to become a highly trusted organization and the partner of choice for many international and local corporations seeking to break into the North African market or other areas in which we have an extensive network of connections built through the years. Our solid grounding in a core set of beliefs and values along with a clear vision and determination has made it possible for the Group to grow and thrive in a world that is rapidly changing and often full of risks. As we face the future, we are actively planning further expansion and diversification in areas that benefit our region and its people and we are confident that Buhajar Group will succeed.
