Abdullah Hashim Company Limited has announced an exclusive distribution partnership with Mikasa Corporation, a Japanese manufacturer of high-performance light construction equipment. The agreement was formalized during a signing ceremony at AHCL’s headquarters in Jeddah, marking a significant milestone for Saudi Arabia’s construction industry.

As Mikasa’s exclusive Saudi distributor, AHCL will deliver the brand’s renowned vibratory plate compactors, rammers, and concrete vibrators — equipment trusted for durability and innovation in global infrastructure projects. This partnership reinforces AHCL’s commitment to advancing Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals by equipping local contractors with cutting-edge Japanese technology.
“This collaboration aligns with our mission to provide world-class machinery solutions. Mikasa’s precision engineering complements our portfolio, enabling us to better serve Saudi Arabia’s booming construction sector,” said Azizurrab.
AHCL will begin nationwide distribution of the equipment in Q4 2025, backed by its established service network and trained Saudi technicians.
