The group operates as a platform of 13+ wholly-owned subsidiaries that span the construction value chain: IMAR Trading & Contracting (core turnkey contracting across Lebanon, Qatar, Kuwait, and KSA), IMAR Properties (residential gated communities and luxury towers in Lebanon, Kuwait, and Cyprus), CMTC (construction chemicals, established 2013, operating in Qatar, Kuwait, KSA), Landworx (landscaping, 2015), Lavajet (environmental waste management, 2016), PWE — Power Water Energy Technologies (industrial and mechanical equipment for water/power/energy/Oil & Gas, 2017), BLINQ (Extra Low Voltage solutions, 2017), GEC (MEICA solutions), IDStudio (furniture, fixtures and equipment), AlDhow (lighting consultation and implementation), ADS Experience (creative event production), INTHRA (hotel and restaurant supplies), EcovertFM (facility management, 2021), and WeStore (on-demand warehousing and delivery platform). The group employs 7,000 staff including 600 in-house structural engineers, architectural designers, design consultants, and interior designers, and applies "state-of-the-art technology and equipment" across construction and fit-out operations.

Revenue is generated through project-based construction and fit-out contracts (multi-year), property sales via IMAR Properties, hardware and chemicals sales through CMTC and INTHRA, professional services across Landworx, PWE, GEC and EcovertFM, managed services via EcovertFM, and transaction-fee industrial equipment distribution via PWE. Pricing is custom and quote-based, tied to project scope and specifications, and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales targeting developers, government entities, and corporate clients across the Middle East, supported by participation in regional construction exhibitions (e.g., Project Qatar 2024), partnerships such as the QFCA and TRANE alliances, and a network of regional offices in Beirut, Doha, Kuwait City, Riyadh, and Cyprus. The company is described as one of the largest privately held construction companies in the region.
