Our Story
A Legacy of
Excellence
For over 115 years, the Alibhai Group has been serving the fundamental needs of our community with unwavering commitment to quality.
In 1909, a visionary pioneer named Alibhai embarked on a journey from Mandvi, India to the shores of Dar es Salaam, laying the cornerstone for what would become the Alibhai Group.
Within a few years, his entrepreneurial spirit took root with the establishment of a modest tailoring shop, marking the humble beginnings of a remarkable legacy. What started as a small venture has grown into a diversified business group spanning multiple industries.
Four generations later, the Alibhai Group stands as a testament to this early vision, having steadily diversified its interests into vital sectors: cashew nut exports, real estate development, and fabric trading. Through these ventures, we provide essential value by addressing the basic human needs for food, shelter, and clothes.
