Founded in 1978, Al Ghurair Printing and Publishing House (AGPPH) has become one of the largest and most successful printing organisations in the Middle East, with major printing operations situated in the heart of Dubai, the business capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE)
AGPPH is a part of the Al Ghurair Group. Al Ghurair has played a substantial role in the business development of the UAE in the past 40 years, and is one of the most widely respected company brands in the region.
Under the leadership of Khalid Abdullah Al Ghurair, AGPPH has become a leading provider of value-driven printing solutions that are only made possible by our professionalism, expertise and the use of cutting-edge technology.
From offices in London, Dubai and Nairobi, we provide integrated services for prestigious clients in the UK, Europe, and throughout the Middle East and Africa.
AGPPH’s success has been made possible by:
- Adherence to global standards;
- Technical innovation;
- Alliance to highly-skilled and dedicated people;
- Teamwork and total commitment;
- Proactive positioning to trend changes and market shifts;
- Meeting and exceeding client expectations.
Kishor Gohil, who leads the organisation, has over 25 years’ experience of the UK and global printing and publishing markets. He uses his technical knowledge and management ability to bring together a wide range of experts into a highly effective operational team, ensuring consistently high standards and the constant pursuit of excellence.
Creative solutions and in-house design facility
The company has an in-house design studio, which works on creative solutions to client concepts. Our designers utilise state-of-the-art equipment, either fully in-house or working with the client’s own design resources. Our prepress facility is world-class, has a fully digital workflow and a team of 30 highly qualified professionals.
Print firepower
AGPPH is the leading printer of educational books and learning materials in the Middle East and much of Africa. We are also the leading printer of consumer and trade magazines across the Middle East. To keep pace with this demand, there is a programme of continual investment, the most recent being the Manugraph Cityline Express Newspaper Web with six High Towers, two of which are heat-set. AGPPH has a formidable array of binding and finishing equipment, which is by far the largest automated binding facility in the UAE.
The company’s web presses run 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. As just one example of our production power: recently we successfully delivered 28 million school textbooks printed in four colours and perfect-bound in eight weeks.
Quality control
All processes and operations are documented at every stage, allowing full traceability and accountability at all times. AGPPH embraces Total Quality Management principles and maintains strict adherence to global quality standards. AGPPH is on schedule to achieve ISO 9002, in line with other Al Ghurair Group companies.
Dubai – international hub of the Middle East
Dubai is host to one of the world’s largest deepwater container seaports, and has a world-class airport logistics chain and road infrastructure. Combine this with Al Ghurair Group’s massive import/export, shipping and logistics operations, and the company is able to export books, directories and magazines – indeed any product – at highly competitive rates and within some of the shortest shipment times available. With 40 years experience and vast group purchasing power, we also enjoy the most competitive rates and highest levels of service from partner airlines, container lines and international courier companies.
