SBIG has its roots as a family-owned Jordanian business, and is still owned and operated by the Shaheen family.

Today it is a key multinational player, with numerous global interests, and is committed to sustained growth and expansion into fresh markets, within its key areas of core competencies, as new opportunities arise.

SBIG's "can do" approach has seen it grow organically, as well as through Joint Ventures Partnerships with global leaders in numerous industry sectors.

Ambition, versatility and adaptability have proved key drivers in the Group's ongoing success.

Building on its infrastructure experience in the Middle East, the Group is expanding rapidly and continuing its successful growth into a large international conglomerate, focusing its efforts on developing markets in, and around, the Middle East.

SBIG never stands still. Most recent achievements by the Group include successful fundraising for the US$750million Disi-Amman water conveyancing system to meet Jordan's interior water needs, as well as structuring and successfully placing a US$145million Bond offer for the establishment of a new headquarters facility for Jordan's Armed Forces.

Other accomplishments - fully demonstrating the Group's ability to take on diverse challenges and to succeed in even the most adverse environments - include establishing a full infrastructure, along with life support facilities, for military and police training camps in Iraq.

SBIG has constructed and commissioned industrial processing plants in Dubai and Jordan, including packaging, food processing and automotive assembly plants, and also opened Ford's first automotive dealership in Libya.

SBIG's ambitious, luxurious Serrenia development and Marina on the Red Sea in Egypt, will become the world's most exclusive waterside address, featuring residential palaces of unrivalled prestige, boutique shopping, a Spa that will become a global destination in its own right, and world class golf and other sporting facilities.
