Serving the Graphic Arts Industry Since 1950

There are none in the graphic arts industry in the Middle eastern Gulf, who haven’t heard of Mr. Ali Reda Alhashemi, the man who helped create the market for graphic arts in this region. Like a true son of the soil, Mr. Ali Reda Alhashemi rose from an unlettered childhood to a notable existence as a self made man. And today popularly known as the `Father of Printing Industry in the Gulf’ Young Ali was compelled to leave the UAE for Bahrain. It was in Bahrain that the rendezvous with graphic arts would take place. It was also in Bahrain that Mr. Ali Reda Alhashemi had his initial education till the age of 18. And then in late 1947, when he started associating with printing when he started working in the Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Printing Press, where there was no electricity also & started with work on wooden types, wherein paper had to be manually placed one by one to be printed. And gradually started a printing press in partnership, somehow the partnership did not workout well and then tried venturing selling machines for the printing press. And it was exactly at this point that Ali Reda Alhashemi tried to acquire the Heidelberg agency for the region, largely encouraged and influenced by the situation of the graphic arts industry in Lebanon where agencies of Agfa, Heidelberg and Hell were present. He finally did so in Dubai, during the early 60s by which time he was selling paper and consumables to a market which had become stagnant.

The period between 1968 and 1999 boom time of Mr. Ali Reda Alhashemi, having sold a record number of Heidelberg printing units, nearly 1200 of them in UAE, Oman, Bahrain & Qatar. He would encourage people to set up presses and help them right from acquiring a license through to financing.

At the age of 80 plus, Ali Reda Alhashemi still follows the same rigorous routine he followed as a youth. He is up every morning at 4 a.m. to recite the Holy Quran and after the Fajr prayer and breakfast, sets off to work. He holds the record for being the first man to enter into his office everyday in the morning. Having led a full life, Ali Reda Alhashemi looks forward to nothing but reward in the hereafter from Allah (SWT). In the year 2013 he decided to handover the printing business to his sons Mr. Mohammad Alhashimi, CEO & Managing Director and Mr. Hesham Alhashemi, Director to carry on the journey of success and to bring the latest technologies to the region.

A self made man, he regards life as a constant training ground, having trained himself in more aspects than one & he says ‘Being a son of the desert I trained myself to ride a donkey and then a camel when I was a child and the learning process of life is ongoing, no matter that now my camel is a Mercedes.’
