BETABAT s.a.r.l

What BETABAT s.a.r.l does

BETABAT s.a.r.l is a Lebanese general contractor founded in 1995 by Roger H. Sabbagh, executing turn-key construction projects across structural, architectural, and electro-mechanical trades using its own teams rather than subcontracting. The company serves private developers, government institutions, embassies, healthcare providers, educational institutions, cultural/heritage organizations, and international organizations, with operations in Lebanon and Qatar. Its project portfolio spans high-rise residential (including the 220m EDGE Tower, the tallest building in Beirut), hospitals (Saint George Hospital, Tripoli Governmental Hospital), embassies (Vatican, French), universities and schools (Lycee Franco-Libanais, Saint George University, ESA), commercial headquarters, industrial facilities (Algorithm pharmaceutical plant, PATCHI chocolate factory, SODICAR, Hyundai), infrastructure (400m Nahr El Kalb prestressed railway bridge, Landmark North Road in Doha), and heritage restoration (Nicolas Sursock Museum).

The company's technical core is its owned equipment and formwork fleet: 14 Potain tower cranes, three ORU concrete batching plants, exclusive DOKA and PERI formwork systems totaling 10,000 m² of slab shuttering plus wall and climbing systems, and a 3,300 m² manufacturing and refurbishment workshop at Gharzouz. This asset base enables in-house execution of complex concrete structures without dependency on rented equipment — a differentiator that supports quality control and margin capture on premium tenders. The firm operates under supervision of major international consultants including DAR-AL-HANDASAH, SKP, D.G. Jones, ERGA, and Rodolphe Mattar.

Revenue is generated project-by-project through direct contractual relationships, with no disclosed pricing tiers and no intermediary or reseller channels. Marketing is conducted through a portfolio website, participation in the Project Lebanon trade exhibition, and direct outreach to architects, developers, and institutional clients. The company is privately held with no disclosed external investors, subsidiaries, or parent entity, and ownership/control appears concentrated with the founder. The 2025-2026 contract cadence — including the Ouyoun Residential Complex, Lebanese Army Museum Extension, and ATCL Central Kitchen — indicates active ongoing project acquisition despite Lebanon's challenging macroeconomic backdrop.
