TaherInvest

TaherInvest is a privately held investment group with a history of employing a unique investment approach and a diverse portfolio in some of the world's most difficult and challenging markets: from Romania 1971, Vietnam 1974, Iraq 1980 and Nigeria 1984 to Myanmar 2002, Afghanistan 2007, Sudan 2010 and South Sudan 2012. Established by Fathi Taher in 1964 on the foundation of a 100-year old family business, TaherInvest quickly evolved from trading commodities between Europe and the Middle East into a thriving global enterprise. In addition to opening markets with pioneering new projects, TaherInvest acquires failing companies and makes them prosperous, as demonstrated by Griro, founded in 1890, ElectroPutere, Excelent/Kandia chocolate, Laminate and Quatron Steel. Today, TaherInvest has more than 7,000 employees and assets in excess of US$ 2 billion with a further US$ 1 billion under development, in oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, agriculture, renewable energy, housing, hotels, rail-transit systems and educational institutions in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia.
