Overview

Khansaheb is a fourth-generation, family-owned Dubai contracting and diversified services group founded in 1935 by Khansaheb Hussain Bin Hassan Amad. Its Civil Engineering division is one of the UAE's oldest and most established contractors, with a project portfolio spanning early national infrastructure (Sharjah's first roads, Dubai's first hospital) through to modern landmarks such as Mall of the Emirates and current luxury developments like Serenia Living on Palm Jumeirah. The wider Khansaheb Group has since diversified into facilities management, property management, industrial distribution, healthcare, and lifestyle/training businesses.
