In 1975, the Saudi Arabian Trading and Construction Company (SATCO) started its operations by representing foreign companies in Saudi Arabia, covering sectors in Construction, Airports Support Services, Catering, Landscaping and Systems Control. A few short years after its inception, SATCO witnessed the construction boom of Saudi Arabia and took full advantage by forming joint ventures with the foreign companies it had been representing. The growth period in Saudi Arabia ended in 1985 and many of the foreign companies in the region, including SATCO's foreign partners, exited. SATCO reorganized by acquiring the JVs' assets and transferring their employees into divisions of SATCO. By effectively absorbing the foreign expertise and knowledge from its JVs, SATCO became an operating company. Today, SATCO successfully continues its legacy as a private company that specializes in delivering first-rate products within the field of industrial services and construction. Having almost four decades of experience in the industry and witnessing its rapid growth has allowed SATCO to obtain a deep-rooted market and consumer knowledge. This has positioned it to become an expert in its field, delivering world-class services all over the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia. SATCO takes pride in its knowledge of the local market dynamics, quality assurance and control, as well as its knowledge of customer service standards.
