Al Meswak Dental Clinics acquires dental facilities in the UAE

Saudi Arabia-based Al Meswak Dental Clinics Company (Al Meswak) has acquired two dental centres in Abu Dhabi, as part of its strategy to expand its presence across the GCC.

Al Meswak, owned by UAE-based Gulf Islamic Investments (GII) and Saudi Arabia’s Jadwa Investments Company (Jadwa), is the largest chain of dental and dermatology clinics in the kingdom, with more than 90 facilities spread across more than 37 Saudi cities. The Al-Anees and Al-Barazi dental centres acquired by Al Meswak are amongst the most prominent dental service providers in the Al-Ain region of Abu Dhabi.

GII, a leading Shari’ah-compliant global alternative investment company with over $3 billion of assets under management, has supported Al Meswak’s expansion into the UAE. GII took a majority share in the Al Meswak Medical Group in May 2022 to co-partner the Saudi Jadwa Investment management and advisory firm. A leading Emirati banking group has provided a substantial financial acquisition facility to assist Al Meswak’s regional expansion.
