The Beginnings Of The Journey To The Legacy.
The journey of J&J HOLDING COMPANY began in 1800s decades, when Hmood’s vision transformed humble animal production into a thriving business of camel-derived products. In 1885 Abdulmosen son of Humood Bin Mohsin Bin Salman Al Shamari, who laid the foundation by focusing on animal production and animal products, particularly the highly prized camel, merino sheep and the goat. The camel, resilient in the harsh desert environment, the merino sheep, prized for its luxurious and soft wool, and the goat, valued for its adaptability and versatility, were at the heart of this operation. Abdulmohsen’s business grew, producing fabrics, woolen goods, and dairy products that were highly sought after both locally and regionally.
A valuable resource in the region. The next Generation Jaser and Jaber carried the mantle, and though their paths diverged with Jaber and his sons moving to Iraq, managing the family’s growing assets across Iraq and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and Jaser and his sons focusing on Kuwait, further developing the business. Sons of Jaber are a great collectors of Horses and trading as well over the globe.
The family’s unity and ambition remained intact. Over time, the business grew into a diverse enterprise, spanning fine jewelry, luxury diamonds, real estate, media, retail, and beyond.

Philosophy And The Symbolism of the Company.
J&J HOLDING COMPANY, named for Jaber and Jaser, The cousins who have transformed their shared legacy into a testament to tradition and excellence.The J&J HOLDING COMPANY reflects the deep-rooted heritage of the Arabian desert, featuring a camel, a goat, and a merino sheep—symbols of wealth, sustainability, and prosperity. A figure in traditional Arabic attire stands proudly alongside them, honoring the family’s legacy.
The quote from Prophet Mohammad, spoken over 1,440 years ago:
“الإبلُ عزٌّ لأَهْلِها، والغنمُ برَكَةٌ، والخَيرُ معقودٌ في نَواصي الخَيلِ إلى يومِ القيامةِ,”
translates to “Camels are a source of pride for their owners, sheep are a blessing, and goodness is tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Judgment.”
This indicates the enduring value and significance of these animals throughout history. For centuries, camels, goats, and merino sheep have played crucial roles in the survival and prosperity of desert communities. Camels, known as the “ships of the desert,” provided transportation, milk, and wool, while goats offered versatile resources, including meat, milk, and hide. The merino sheep, renowned for its prized wool, became a symbol of luxury and wealth. These animals were not only essential for daily life but also represented status and success, shaping the economic and cultural identity of the region over generations.
