Born at a calm
village in the Southern Region of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to
a farmer father and owner of a farm. At his early stages, he
joined Omar Bin Abdulaziz School, which cherished in the memory.
His ambitions, dreams and enthusiasm had driven him to the
Kingdoms Capital, Al-Riyadh, where he started a small business
of car trading, before he expanded his activities to contracting
and other trading activities by establishing his own firm in
1976, which he named Haif Trading and Contracting Establishment.
Thanks to his great determination, far-sightedness, hard work
and dedication, the small business evolved into a market leader
in several areas. The name of the Firm has been changed later to
Haif Company.
Haif Bin Mohammad
Bin Aboud Al-Qahtani, the self-made man, spared no effort along
many years to progress his business systematically toward
realizing his goals, which he drew carefully and achieved with
thorough planning, glowing determination and great ambitions.
Throughout his business career, Sheikh Haif has adopted the
supreme values that are enriched by his deep faith in Allah
Almighty and the Islamic way of life, which he was accustomed to
from his very early stages of childhood with the help and
guidance of his parents and the Islamic environment as well.
He always bears
great gratitude and respect toward the Founder of the Kingdom
and the leader of this country and his faithful brothers who
contributed considerably to the prosperity of the Kingdom and
thanks to their support and encouragement, the private sector
organizations were able to advance ahead of the foreign
competition.
Sheikh Haif
believes that life is the prime educator and school
of life, but
business experience must always be reinforced with proper
academic education. For this, he was keen in
educating his sons
and daughters without overlooking the main values, which must be
an integral part of the education and the culture in general.
Sheikh Haif, the
President of Haif Company, has gained great
respect and
appreciation among businessmen in both
private and public sectors for his
leadership of the Company driven by uncompromised values that he
believes in and observes very carefully. The values which steam
the company engines to run successfully through the stages of
development and overcome the challenges on
the way.
To him, clients
are the prime asset and commitment to quality and timely
delivery are the magic keys to success and total customer
satisfaction.
He always believes
that success is measured by value added to the people and
society. His philanthropic deeds, which he does not like to
mention, are mere evidence of his attitude and commitment toward
society.
