# Top 50 multinational companies in Lebanon
Tamtam tracks 88 multinational companies headquartered in Lebanon. This list ranks the 50 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Dar, Sibanye-Stillwater and American University of Beirut. Their median headcount is 524. Half of them were founded in 1974 or later.
These multinational companies in Lebanon operate across various sectors, with a notable presence in higher education, banking, and engineering. Firms like Dar, founded in 1956, specialize in multidisciplinary engineering and design services, while the American University of Beirut (est. 1866) and Saint Joseph University of Beirut (est. 1875) are prominent educational institutions. Bank Audi, established in 1962, is a universal banking group.
A significant number of these companies, including Dar, American University of Beirut, Saint Joseph University of Beirut, and Bank Audi, are headquartered in Beirut. This concentration in the capital city suggests Beirut serves as a central hub for multinational operations in Lebanon. The founding dates indicate a mix of long-established institutions and more recent entries, with several companies established in the mid-20th century.

## 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 11, 2026.
