Al Rashid Trading & Contracting

What Al Rashid Trading & Contracting does

Al Rashid Trading & Contracting (RTC) is a privately held, Qatar-domiciled multi-disciplined construction contractor established in 1995 and headquartered in Doha. The company operates four divisions — Infrastructure, Oil & Gas, Building Construction, and GIS Survey Solution — delivering turnkey engineering, procurement, construction, and maintenance services across Qatar's utility, public works, energy, and real estate sectors. Its client base is anchored by Qatari government and quasi-government entities including Kahramaa, Ashghal, Qatar Petroleum, Ras Laffan Industrial City, United Development Company, Barwa, and Hamad Hospital, with a track record of 150+ completed projects.

RTC generates revenue through three streams: EPC and construction contracts awarded via competitive government tendering and direct enterprise negotiation; recurring maintenance and facility management services for utilities and developers; and subcontracting for both local and international contracting companies on oil & gas, MEP, and manpower projects. Pricing is project-based with no publicly disclosed rate cards. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales supplemented by a corporate website, LinkedIn presence, and downloadable brochure used primarily for credentials and tender submissions.

The company's competitive position is built on regulatory certifications (ISO 9001, 14001, 45001; Kahramaa, QCDD, MoF, and ICV approvals), a 100+ equipment fleet, 250+ total workforce, and 29 years of operating history in Qatar. RTC has expanded beyond Qatar through a wholly-owned KSA subsidiary, Global Desire Contracting Company, based in Al Khobar. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; the company remains privately held under Chairman Ali Ahmed S Al-Rashid and General Manager Shambhu Nath Sah, with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or acquisition activity.
