About ARABKOR

We are the Saudi side of a Korean company's expansion. We assess whether a product fits the market, do the groundwork that makes a launch possible, and run distribution once it does.

What we do

Most companies that want to sell in Saudi Arabia do not fail on the product. They fail on the distance between a good product and a market that runs on local registration, certification, distribution relationships and physical presence.

ARABKOR closes that distance. We work with Korean and global manufacturers across four sectors: climate, technology, infrastructure and international trade. A typical engagement runs from first assessment through entity setup, certification and channel selection, to distribution and operations on the ground.

How an engagement runs

We assess first, and we will say when the answer is no. A product that cannot clear SASO or SFDA, or that has no price position against what is already in the market, is better identified in week two than in month nine.

Where the answer is yes, we take on the parts that are slow to do from abroad: the entity, the certification file, the channel decision, then the day-to-day of moving and supporting stock.

The company

ARABKOR is the brand of Advanced Air Conditioning Technologies Est. (مؤسسة تقنيات التكييف المتقدمة), a commercial establishment registered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and based in Riyadh.

The entity is currently an Establishment. A conversion to a limited liability company is planned, after which the registered name changes accordingly.

Partners

ARABKOR is the exclusive distributor in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for ARP Korea, which manufactures precision air conditioning for data centres and server rooms.

We hold a signed partnership with Carnotfleet.

Other relationships are in progress. We do not name a partner until the agreement is signed and both sides have cleared the disclosure, which is why this list is shorter than the work behind it.
