OUR STORY

Growing alongside the emirate we call home

Al Shorooq was founded in Ras Al Khaimah on 5 August 2007 with a clear purpose: to give contractors and developers equipment and transport they could genuinely depend on. Licensed for heavy machinery and equipment rental and for the transport of materials by heavy truck, we started where projects start — on the ground, moving earth and moving materials.

Over the years our fleet and teams have supported road works, municipal and public-services projects, electricity-related infrastructure, excavation, groundwater-related works, and mountain and rock removal. Each assignment taught us the same lesson: success on site depends on the right equipment, in the right location, backed by people who coordinate well and deliver on commitment.

As our reputation grew, so did our ambition. We extended our commitment to service into hospitality with the Al Hatte brand — Al Hatte Restaurant, Al Hatte Time Café and Al Hatte Al Jadeeda Cafeteria. Two very different industries; one shared culture of reliability, quality and respect for the people we serve.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO

Welcome to Al Shorooq.

When we started in Ras Al Khaimah in 2007, we had a simple belief: if you show up on time, do the work properly and treat people fairly, the business will follow. Nearly two decades later, that belief is still how we run the company.

We built our foundations in transportation and heavy equipment, working alongside contractors and developers on the roads, utilities and infrastructure that have shaped this emirate. Those years taught us discipline — the discipline of meeting a programme, keeping machines ready and keeping people safe.

We have carried that same discipline into hospitality. Through Al Hatte, we now welcome families, friends and colleagues every day, and we hold our kitchens and cafés to the same standards we hold our sites: consistency, cleanliness and genuine care.

Our ambition is not simply to grow bigger. It is to grow better — to build a sustainable organisation that our clients trust, our employees are proud of and our community values. As Ras Al Khaimah and the UAE continue to grow, we are ready to grow with them.

Thank you for your trust. We look forward to working with you — and to welcoming you.

Hazza Al Khaiteri

Chief Executive Officer, Al Shorooq
