Building the GCC's heavy industry marketplace.
Thakeel Al-Arabia connects dealers, rental houses, parts suppliers and skilled workers across Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Oman — in one premium, bilingual platform.
Our story
Thakeel Al-Arabia was founded in 2024 to bring the heavy equipment market online — the way Bayut transformed real estate and Airbnb transformed travel.
The Gulf's construction and infrastructure boom moves billions of dollars of machinery, rentals and labour every year — and most of it still happens through fragmented WhatsApp groups, broker networks and paper invoices.
We built Thakeel to make that market transparent, verifiable and instantly searchable across five countries and two languages.

Founder & CEO
Meet Ali Parvaiz
Founder & CEO, Thakeel Arabia
With more than 10 years of experience in the heavy equipment industry, I have seen firsthand the challenges businesses face when buying, selling, renting, sourcing parts, or finding the right operators and equipment partners.
Thakeel Arabia was created to solve these challenges through a more connected, transparent, and efficient digital ecosystem for the heavy equipment industry.
Our approach is simple: from making equipment discovery easier to improving communication between buyers, sellers, rental companies, suppliers, and operators, every part of Thakeel Arabia is designed to reduce friction and help businesses make faster, better-informed decisions.
We are not building just another marketplace. We are building an industry-focused platform that brings the heavy equipment ecosystem together and creates new opportunities for businesses across Kuwait and the wider GCC.
Our commitment is to continue listening to the market, improving the platform, and delivering solutions that create measurable value for our users.
