Our Story

A Legacy Built on Trust, Trade, and Vision

Manour Group was established in 1995 by Mr. Mohammednur Ali Salih with a visionary mission: to bridge the gap between global manufacturers and the underserved markets of Africa and the Middle East.

What began as a focused trading enterprise rapidly evolved into a diversified multinational group. Over three decades, Manour Group has built unrivalled expertise across eight critical business sectors — from foodstuff and agriculture to industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

Today, with regional offices in Djibouti and the United Arab Emirates, Manour Group stands as a premier conduit for international commerce, channeling billions in trade value and creating economic opportunities across the region.
