These corporate groups and holding companies in the Middle East are primarily large, diversified entities with significant workforces. Industries represented include oil and gas with ADNOC Group, retail through Landmark Group and Majid Al Futtaim, and telecommunications with e& and Turk Telekom. Banking is also prominent with Emirates NBD and Yapı Kredi.
A notable pattern among these large companies is their concentration in key urban centers. Dubai hosts a significant number of headquarters, including Landmark Group, Majid Al Futtaim, and Emirates NBD. Istanbul, Turkey, is another major hub, home to Koç Holding, Anadolu Group, and Yıldız Holding, indicating a strong regional presence of Turkish conglomerates.

Tamtam finds the decision-makers at every company on a list like this one, with verified emails, phone numbers and the buying signals that tell you when to reach out.
How this list is built
Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 13, 2026.
