History
Alkaffary Group was founded by Abdulrahman Nasser Alkaffary in 1951, as a small store in Riyadh that sold traditional carpets (known as "Zal").[3][4]
In the following years, Alkaffary Group expanded into multiple areas, including the launch of High Point Furniture in 2005, followed by Alkaffary Flooring, and Alkaffary Projects.[5][6]
Saleh Abdulrahman Alkaffary, the founder's son, then expanded the business into a larger company, diversifying it into various sectors, including furniture, flooring, and home decor.[7][8]
In 2009, the Minister of Commerce and Industry of Saudi Arabia, Hassan bin Ahmed Zainal Ali Reda, approved the amendment of License No. (257/Q), formally establishing Alkaffary Group Company as a closed joint-stock company. The company's capital was set at 5 million Saudi Riyals, divided into 500,000 shares, each with a nominal value of 10 Riyals.[9][10]
Today, the group is recognized as one of the leading brands in the Middle East for home design and decor.[11][12][13][14]
