A COMMITMENT<br />
TO SERVE<br />
There are not many people in Bahrain who have not heard of<br />
Khalid Almoayed. In fact, it’s pretty certain that the name<br />
would elicit the same respect anywhere in the Gulf region.<br />
Founder and Chairman of the diverse and multi-faceted corporate<br />
house, Khalid Abdulrahman Almoayed & Sons, and Chairman of<br />
the Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI), Khalid<br />
Almoayed has had a front row seat in the growth of the nation<br />
through its most eventful years. Having built the family owned KAS<br />
Holding he has overseen its growth and development into a unique<br />
business concept that includes lifestyle, retail, travel, IT, contracting,<br />
F&B and transportation. The KAS portfolio has since extended<br />
into various Middle Eastern countries, exporting concepts to new<br />
territories, putting together a portfolio built on family values and<br />
responsibility towards the community.<br />
