Overview

Arabtec Holding PJSC was a Dubai-based construction and contracting conglomerate founded in 1975, once the UAE's largest listed contractor and known for building the Burj Khalifa, the Louvre Abu Dhabi, and other landmark projects across the region. It was the first construction firm to list on the Dubai Financial Market (2005). Following severe financial difficulties compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic, shareholders voted to liquidate the company in September 2020, and a Dubai court formally declared Arabtec Holding and its subsidiaries bankrupt on 25 October 2022, appointing trustees to liquidate its assets. The parent entity is therefore no longer an operating going concern as of 2026.

Where Arabtec Holding PJSC publishes directly. Each link is checked for the correct platform and profile format.

A tick means the link resolves to a valid company profile URL on that platform. It does not confirm the account is operated by Arabtec Holding PJSC — that requires a signal only the platform or the company can give, so DXBi does not claim it.
