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 nine critical business divisions - from foodstuff and agriculture to industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

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

Chairman's Message
"

For thirty years, Manour Group has stood as proof that vision, persistence, and integrity can build something truly enduring. When I founded this group in 1995, I saw the enormous potential that lay in connecting underserved markets with the world's best suppliers. What we have built across nine divisions and 21 countries is not merely a business - it is a legacy of trust that spans generations. We do not simply move goods; we move economies forward. As we look ahead, that founding purpose remains our compass.
