About Saj Alrakaya

Saj Alrakaya is a Saudi-based furniture manufacturing platform focused on delivering high-quality, custom-built wooden furniture for commercial and residential applications.

Based in Jeddah, Saj Alrakaya specializes in the production of office furniture and interior woodwork, combining durability, functional design, and execution precision. The company operates at the intersection of manufacturing and project delivery, enabling seamless integration between design intent and final installation.

Positioned within Almiras’s built environment ecosystem, Saj Alrakaya addresses a critical gap in the market: the limited availability of locally manufactured, project-ready furniture that meets both quality and timeline requirements.

Market Pain Points

The Saudi furniture market remains heavily dependent on imports, particularly for office and project-based requirements, resulting in long lead times and limited flexibility. In many cases, off-the-shelf products do not fully align with project specifications, forcing compromises during the fit-out process. Additionally, international procurement cycles introduce delays that can negatively impact construction schedules and overall cost efficiency. While local manufacturing exists, the domestic market currently lacks the depth and capacity to consistently deliver high-quality, customizable furniture solutions at scale.

Investment Rationale

Saj Alrakaya reflects Almiras's strategy of building local industrial capabilities that strengthen the built environment value chain through manufacturing, operational excellence, and supply chain integration.

Macro Fit:

Aligned with Vision 2030's industrial localization agenda and growing demand for locally manufactured furniture and fit-out solutions.

Micro Fit:

Combines local manufacturing, customization, and shorter lead times to reduce reliance on imports while improving quality and project delivery.

Management Fit:

Benefits from Almiras's active ownership model, applying operational discipline and continuous improvement to build a competitive manufacturing platform.

Portfolio Synergy:

Serves as the manufacturing backbone for ArchiSite and complements Sheen's procurement capabilities, creating an integrated ecosystem across design, sourcing, manufacturing, and project execution.
