Twenty-five years — and food factories are still our purpose

We started with one aim: for the national date and food industry to advance faster. We are still on it.

Why we started

Twenty-five years ago, the Kingdom's date factories were growing faster than technology was reaching them. The equipment existed somewhere in the world, but the road to it was long. Who knows which factory to buy from? Who guarantees a machine suits our dates, our rutab, our heat? And who stands with you once the container is unloaded?

Hassan AlQarqoosh Trading Est. was founded to be that road — to let the national date and food industry move faster, not by selling it equipment, but by knowing on its behalf where every part is made, to what quality, and at what price.

Al-Ahsa, where the trust started

The turning point came when the factories of Al-Ahsa believed in the idea. They did not only buy equipment from us; they trusted us with the decision itself — which machine, from where, at what price.

Every project ended the same way: newer equipment, full oversight of installation and maintenance, and a lower cost than expected. Those projects accumulated into what we call our technical index: a precise map of the factories of China and Turkiye — who builds what, who can be relied on, and who is to be avoided. Whatever a plant owner needs, we know where it is met.

Today we serve more than 130 factories across the Kingdom, and the firm has become an advisory reference for date and food plant owners on how to develop their lines.

How we work

We work on two axes that never separate:

Advice and planning — we sit with the plant owner, understand the line, the need and the target capacity, and draw the road together: which machine suits, from which factory, at what cost, and in what order the line can be developed without stopping production.

Engineering and field execution — turning the plan into reality: design and engineering specification, following the build at the partner factories, pre-shipment inspection, then installation, commissioning and maintenance inside the plant — work done on the factory floor, not from an office.

What sets us apart is that no middleman sits between the two: the people who plan for you are the people standing with you at installation, so nothing is lost in the handover.

What we commit to

We inspect before we supply

We visit the partner factories in China and Turkiye ourselves. What we supply, we have seen running -- not read about in a catalogue.

We stay after installation

Spares, maintenance and field support from Dammam. Keeping your line running is part of the deal, not an extra service.

We give the whole opinion

If the machine does not suit your plant, or the idea does not pay for itself, we say so. Saving your money keeps us longer than one sale.
