Amtek Industries is an UAE multinational conglomerate headquartered in Ajman, United Arab Emirates.[3] It encompasses seven business sectors: healthcare, engineering, materials, services, real estate, textiles, consumer products, and chemicals. Amtek Industries was founded in 1995 by Abdul Mateen Ekkeri as a textile company. It has operations in more than 15 countries across 4 continents. The current chairman of the Amtek group is Abdul Mateen Ekkeri.[4]

The Amtek group has helped establish and finance numerous quality research, educational and cultural institutes in the UAE.[5][6]

Textiles[edit]

Amtek was established as a small 1-acre (0.40 ha) factory in Ajman in 1995. In the early years, most of the products sold in the shop was for apparel fabrics. As the time went by, consumption of apparel fabrics dwindled down as the number of sewing machines usage at households were decreased and parallel to economical growth, demand for off-the-rack products were increased. Due to these reasons, by 1997 most of the collections sold in the shop consisted of drapery fabrics. In 1999, the wholesale store was opened in order to sell in bulk to retailers. In the same year, the company participated in the inaugural Evteks Exhibition.

In 2000, the export business gathered speed with the opening of the Laleli store. Later on, logistic and sales points were set up in Lithuania, Russia, Kazakhstan, Syria, and Ukraine. In 2001, company participated for the first time in the Heimtex International Exhibition, which is held every year in Germany.

The company’s head office is still located in Ajman where most of the activities are carried out. The large part of the company's revenue comes from overseas activities.[7]

Several of the group's hospitals have been among the first in UAE to receive a form of international healthcare accreditation, in their case by the America-based Joint Commission International (JCI).[9]
