These companies operate through 156 divisions' branches and outlets that are spread over 9 countries covering all major cities in the region. The number of employees reaches about 8 thousands men and women in all positions. The seed of the IKK Group was sown in the late 1960's when NEPRO Factory for PVC pipes was established as the first of its kind in the Middle East. After 37 years, NEPRO's production increased from 700 tons per year of PVC Pipes in 1970 to more than 34,000 tons of PVC, CPVC Pipes and Fittings in 2007.



Then National Marketing followed. National Marketing is a trading company designed to market NEPRO products and import the fittings and other accessories without which PVC Pipes cannot be sold. Early in 2007, a new division was added to National Marketing's trading activities. The Wood Division was established in January 2007 to trade whole sale and retail in a variety of wood products and their accessories to meet the high Saudi demand for these products from local importers, traders, manufacturers and contractors.



Kabbani Construction Group (KCG) is the contracting vehicle of the IKK Group of Companies which is one of the largest and oldest diversified business institutions in Saudi Arabia.
