MEDCO is a 100% Saudi Arabian company founded by Saleh A. Alfadl and his brother Ibrahim 35 years ago, in 1967. It’s genesis was in farming, several years before the ‘center pivot’ irrigation revolution started. During this period MEDCO sold large numbers of VOLVO farm tractors, including 1500 in one year! It was the golden era at a time when today’s entrepreneurial big names of modern Arabia started their companies too. Progressively MEDCO branched out into the industrial and construction field and secured several leading and complementary franchises in the seventies - DYNAPAC – World leader in Compaction and Paving. - FLYGT – World leader in transfer of Fluids technology in Water and Sewage. - ALIMAK – World leader in Hoists and Climbers for men and materials. - SULLAIR – World leader in Industrial and Mobile Air Compressors. It is true to say there is not a single airport or highway, not one sewage lift station or STP, or a high rise building and construction site that has not benefited from using these renowned products. Scores, even hundreds, of projects have used these fine prices of equipment. A significant part of Saudi Arabia’s infrastructure has been built with them. Later in the eighties and nineties other world brand names joined up with MEDCO. - ESAB – A world leader and innovator in Welding and Cutting technologies. - PUTZMEISTER – A world leader in concrete pumping. And last year… GEHL – A world leader in skid steer loaders and materials handlers. And this year… MACOGA – The worlds largest manufacturer of expansion joints. NEDERMAN – A world leader in fume extraction technology.
