Al Ahlea Circle Co. KSCC 2.2

The founders of Al Ahlea Circle Cleaning Company established the Company with the intent to maintain a safe and clean environment for Kuwait, free from all causes and sources of solid waste pollution. Solid waste pollution has become an issue of increased concern for all countries of the civilized world. Due to the continued significant population growth, man is generating more and more solid waste. This continued population growth has increased the demand for facilities, which generate waste, those being, among others, various types of industrial installations, supermarkets, shopping malls, food outlets, and municipal and educational institutions. All of these sources create different types of waste in increasing quantities.

This concern for the environment was the impetus for the founders of the Company to form a service organization, which they felt, would make a major contribution towards maintaining a cleaner and safer Kuwait. This has always been the goal of the founders of the Company since the inception of the organization in 1981.

The growth of the Company and the technical experience it has gained are a result of many contracts awarded to it by the major governmental authorities and private institutions. Hence, the Company is able to provide complicated cleaning processes with great efficiency.

Due to these efforts, The Company enjoys an outstanding and successful performance rating, and consequently, a very significant market share in Kuwait.

For the future, we envision full refuse recycling programs being implemented not only in Kuwait but also in the Arabian Gulf and Middle East regions. Recycling is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. Recycling, including composting, turns materials that would otherwise become waste into valuable resources and generates a host of environmental, financial and social benefits. With landfill areas rapidly diminishing, our ultimate aim is to improve and maintain the natural beauty of our cities, beaches, mountains and marine and wildlife in the region for our future generations.

Al Ahlea Circle Cleaning Company has earned its stature in the Kuwaiti business community based on diversified services, care, professional excellence, pride and concern for its clients. We listen to clients’ challenges – for today and tomorrow. From there, we tailor our services to meet client needs. It is this union between diversified services and professional excellence that enables us to provide the highest quality, and most flexible, solutions to our clients’ requirements.
