Khalifa Juma Al Nabooda Group of Companies

Khalifa Juma Al Nabooda Group of Companies

Khalifa Juma Al Nabooda established the group in 1963 when he opened Dubai Printing Press, the first printing enterprise in the emirate. The business expanded from that base into a holding structure that owns and operates companies across advertising, automotive, aviation, catering, construction, education, hospitality, logistics, manufacturing, real estate, and trading. Family members including Khalid Khalifa Al Nabooda as managing director and Juma Khalifa Al Nabooda as board member participate in oversight. The office deploys capital through direct co-investments and real-estate vehicles. Asset classes include industrial technology, mobility and transportation, proptech, supply-chain logistics, energy transition, agritech, and healthcare services. Confirmed positions include the McLaren Automotive retail partnership for Dubai and the Northern Emirates, the Otis Worldwide vertical-transportation alliance, and the London residential property holding. Geographic reach centers on the United Arab Emirates with additional exposure in the United Kingdom. No public headcount or AUM figure exists. The group maintains a commercial building on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai and operates Aerogulf Services alongside a stable of purebred Arabian racing horses. Khalid Khalifa Al Nabooda holds membership in the Emirates Racing Authority. A recent operational emphasis has been placed on Emiratization programs that include tailored training and mentorship for UAE nationals. The structure differs from a conventional family office because it retains full ownership of multiple operating businesses rather than outsourcing management to external managers. This integrated model allows direct control over industrial assets and partnerships while preserving succession through named family principals across generations.
