Mezzan Holding’s origins date back to the 1940s, when a young and ambitious Kuwaiti entrepreneur opened his first retail store selling consumer-ready imported products. These products include rice, sugar, and other food staples from neighboring countries, and later from Europe, the USA, and Asia.
That entrepreneur was the late Jassim Mohammad Ali Al Wazzan, and what he started over 75 years ago is today one of the region’s most reputable and trusted conglomerates with operations spanning across six countries through 34 vertically integrated companies.
