We deliver value for the communities where we operate by driving financial performance that benefits a broad range of stakeholders, including suppliers, employees, contractors and shareholders. Through our operations, we facilitate business growth for our customers, create meaningful job opportunities, and contribute to capital formation through our investments in Saudi Arabia and other countries where we have a presence.

We strive to ensure that everyone who interacts with Bahri is treated with respect and dignity, and that we uphold the highest standards of ethics and corporate governance, maintaining a clear understanding of risks and opportunities to strengthen the resilience of our business.
