INTRODUCTION
ASTRA “Arab Supply & Trading Corporation” is 100% Saudi owned
and managed organization. Founded in 1967 to undertake various
activities. More than 3500 employees work for the corporation in the
following categories:
 Contracting & Services
 Agriculture
 Commercial Retail
 Manufacturing
 Medical
 Real Estate
 Equity Investment/Shares
Based on the owner’s “self sufficiency” vision a Construction Branch
was established in 1976 to fulfill the needs of Astra’s various divisions
for the study, design and the construction of all required facilities. This
was planned then in order to guarantee the correct implementation of
ideas and projects and to ensure achieving all set tasks and goals.
The increase in demand for quality in Saudi Arabia prompted us to
expand in order to fulfill this market requirement and now we are
classified as one of the leading constructions companies in the region.
Astra has the capacity of constructing, maintaining & operating
compounds like Al-Hamra , Al -Cordoba, Khurais Compounds in Riyadh,
Al-Hamran, Olaya & Astra Family Compounds in Tabuk.
Astra has the capacity to provide financial support for large projects if
and when required; in fact the construction branch is organized to take
on any necessary expansion to cope with such project.
The yearly turn over of the construction branch ranges between (80 to
100) Million Dollars.
