Riyadh Foundry for Industry and Trade was established in 1976, starting as a company specializing in the production of metal castings. At that time, the local market relied heavily on imports, presenting the company with an opportunity to meet market needs and provide high-quality products.
During the 1980s, the company witnessed a noticeable growth in demand for its products. The increase in construction and development projects in Saudi Arabia led to a higher need for metal castings. Riyadh Foundry responded to this demand by expanding its production facilities and increasing its production capacity, helping to meet the growing market needs.
In the 1990s, the company recognized the importance of technological innovation. It made significant investments in modern equipment and advanced production systems. This step improved production efficiency and product quality, allowing the company to compete with global firms. The company also started implementing training programs to develop employee skills, boosting their productivity.
At the turn of the millennium, Riyadh Foundry realized the need to diversify its products to meet the needs of various industrial sectors. It began offering a wide range of metal castings, such as those used in heavy and construction industries. The company also expanded its operations into regional and international markets, helping to grow its customer base and open new avenues for growth.
In the second decade of the millennium, Riyadh Foundry began adopting environmentally sustainable practices. It implemented eco-friendly technologies in its operations, focusing on reducing waste and using recyclable materials. This approach not only enhanced the company’s reputation as a socially responsible entity but also attracted a new segment of customers who value sustainability.
Since 2020, the company has continued to achieve its expansion goals, with monthly production reaching 1,500 tons. It has also invested in expanding production lines and developing more specialized products. The company has experienced international business growth as well, forming strategic partnerships with global companies.
