01 / Who We Are
A heritage Saudi enterprise built on quality, partnership and continuity.
Founded in 1962, Hamed Al-Qahtani Universal Markets Company is a leading Saudi limited liability company headquartered in Dammam, Eastern Province. For more than six decades, we have grown alongside the Kingdom’s remarkable development, evolving from a single trading outlet into a nationwide distribution network serving industrial, institutional, and retail customers across Saudi Arabia.
Our business specializes in the import, wholesale, and retail distribution of uniforms, safety workwear, flame-resistant clothing, personal protective equipment (PPE), footwear, and household goods. Through decades of trusted partnerships, careful sourcing, and dependable supply, we have earned the confidence of some of the Kingdom’s largest industrial and commercial organizations.
“What began in 1962 as a single shop has grown into a network of fifteen branches serving customers across Saudi Arabia—built steadily, decade by decade, on trust, quality, and lasting relationships.”
Today, Hamed Al-Qahtani Universal Markets Company operates as a recognized distributor of leading international brands and maintains an ISO 9001:2015-certified Quality Management System. Guided by the values that have shaped our success since the beginning—integrity, reliability, customer focus, and continuous improvement—we remain committed to delivering quality products, exceptional service, and long-term value to the communities and customers we serve throughout the Kingdom. As we continue to grow, we remain dedicated to supporting Saudi Arabia’s industrial, commercial, and consumer sectors with dependable products, responsive service, and enduring partnerships built on trust.

04 / Quality & Standards
Our quality system is independently certified — a commitment documented and audited every year.
Hamed Al-Qahtani Universal Markets Company holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for its quality management system, registered with the International Register of Quality Assessed Organisations (IRQAO) and certified by Quay Audit UK Limited under ASCB accreditation.
The certification covers the import and distribution of safety workwear and household items supplied to Saudi Aramco, SABIC and many other major companies, through wholesale and retail sales across our fifteen-branch network.
For us, certification is not a badge — it is the formal expression of how we already work. Consistent processes, traceable supply, dependable lead times, and the kind of service customers can plan around.
05 / Our Values
Four principles, refined across three generations of trade.
Safety First
From the protective workwear we distribute to the standards we uphold internally, safety is the foundation of every decision — for our people, our partners and the customers who depend on us.
Quality Without Compromise
We source from established international brands, maintain ISO-certified processes and refuse the shortcuts that erode trust. Quality, for us, is a long-term investment in reputation.
Reliability
The largest industrial enterprises in the Kingdom rely on consistent supply. Decades of uninterrupted service to customers like Saudi Aramco and SABIC reflect our discipline around dependability.
Service That Endures
Many of our customer relationships span generations. We treat every transaction as part of a longer conversation — one we intend to keep having for decades to come.
Our Vision
“To remain the Kingdom’s most trusted distributor of uniforms, workwear, safety wear, flame-resistant clothing, and personal protective equipment (PPE), growing alongside Saudi Arabia and serving its people, industries, and communities with excellence since 1962.”
