What Saleh Al Hamad Al Mana does

Saleh Al Hamad Al Mana Co. LLC is a privately held, family-owned Qatari automotive trading company established in the late 1950s and headquartered in Doha. It operates as the sole authorized agent in Qatar for three global OEMs — Nissan, Renault, and Infiniti — distributing new vehicles through a network of dedicated brand showrooms (Salwa Road, Al Sadd, Bin Omran, Al Khor for Nissan; Salwa Road for Infiniti and Renault), supported by a dedicated multi-brand pre-owned and certified pre-owned showroom on Commercial Avenue in Doha.

The company's product portfolio spans new vehicles across the three franchise brands, certified pre-owned programs (Nissan Intelligent Choice, Renault SELECTION with 82-point inspection, Infiniti CPO) each carrying platinum warranty options, plus multi-brand used vehicles including Exeed, Chery, and Zeekr. After-sales operations include at least seven service centers, body shops, and spare parts distribution points across Doha and Al Khor, employing manufacturer-trained technicians and supplying genuine OEM parts. Digital channels include the shalmana.com platform with online vehicle listings and a financing calculator. The company does not disclose proprietary technology, APIs, or AI/ML capabilities.

Revenue is generated through one-time vehicle sales (new and pre-owned), recurring service and parts revenue across the service-center network, trade-ins, financing facilitation, and extended warranty products. Customer segments include individual retail consumers, fleet and corporate buyers, and luxury vehicle buyers. Beyond automotive, the parent Al Mana Group operates franchise businesses including Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Harvey Nichols, Centra Supermarkets, Batteel Bakery & Cafe, Protech, and Gulf Supplies, though these are not core to the automotive trading entity under analysis. The company is privately held by the Al Mana family with no institutional investment, public listing, or disclosed financial statements.
