Critical Dependencies
One of the largest and most fiercely private family conglomerates in Saudi Arabia, founded in 1947 by Suliman Saleh Olayan and helmed for decades by his daughters Lubna and Hutham Olayan, with an estimated $10 billion-plus diversified global investment portfolio spanning food & beverage (Saudi Coca-Cola bottling, Burger King franchise), health & personal care, financial services and real estate — including a 20.3% stake in Saudi British Bank and historic holdings in Credit Suisse and landmark properties like 550 Madison Avenue (New York) and the Ritz Madrid. Employs roughly 35,000 people across 20+ countries. Continuing to diversify in 2026, the group signed a mining joint venture with Britain's Weir Group (mining being a designated Vision 2030 priority sector) and, through Olayan Financing Company, made a minority equity investment in MS Pharma, while also participating in Breadfast's $50 million Series B round alongside Mubadala and SBI Investment.
