Over the period of time, it has grown along with the development of 
UAE and today is considered as the undisputed leader in the field of hardware and building materials.
Initially the company started with the import and trading of building materials; with the passage of time
and developments in construction industry in the U.A.E., AL KAUKABAN contributed to the development
of the country and the region by understanding technical developments during that time and the rapidly
changing needs of the sector. This helped AL KAUKABAN to focus on identifying, sourcing and supplying
the right kind of items related to construction and building materials.
After firmly establishing its presence in the local market, AL KAUKABAN set its sights on the  targets 
beyond  the  borders  of  the  U.A.E.  Exports  began  in  the  year  1985.  Initially attention was paid to
neighboring Gulf countries and later reaching as far as the Russia and many CIS countries and African
countries such as Eritrea, Ethiopia, Sudan, Libya, Algeria, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Gabon,
Madagascar and Indian Sub Continent.
Looking into the vast market the construction sector has opened up with the new ambitious projects
in the UAE; AL KAUKABAN has been engaged into trading of high quality hand tools & ironmongery products.
