Kuwait · Established 2008

A Kuwait trading house built on three disciplines.

We import and export, we source and distribute food products across the MENA region, and we deliver the IT, low-voltage and fiber infrastructure that projects run on.

Divisions

Three businesses, one way of working.

Each division stands on its own, but all three draw on the same capability: identifying what is worth bringing to market, securing it on sound terms, and seeing it through to delivery.

01

Trade — Import & Export

We source globally and move goods into the region. We handle the commercial and documentary side end to end — from the first approach to a manufacturer through to the shipment arriving in a warehouse, with the landed cost understood before anyone commits.

  • Supplier identification and qualification
  • Commercial negotiation and Incoterms
  • Documentation and letters of credit
  • Freight coordination and customs clearance
  • Landed-cost modelling
  • Pre-shipment inspection

02

Food Sourcing & Distribution

We pick food products with a real reason to be on a shelf, secure the rights to bring them into the region, and build the distribution behind them. We prefer a buy-and-resell model over consignment — the distributor owns the stock, while we keep the documentation, registration and supply side sound.

  • Product evaluation and category fit
  • Regional rights agreements
  • Registration, clearance and labelling
  • Importer and distributor partnerships
  • Retail, pharmacy and e-commerce channels
  • Expiry and rotation discipline

03

IT & Infrastructure Services

Project management and low-voltage systems. We survey, design and supervise delivery of structured cabling, fiber-optic backbone and building systems — and we hand the work over documented and tested, not merely installed.

  • Project management and site supervision
  • Structured cabling, copper and fiber
  • Fiber backbone, splicing and termination
  • Containment, pathways and network cabinets
  • CCTV and access control
  • Testing, certification and as-built handover

Regional rights holder

Asil Mutfak across the MENA region

Art Block General Trading Company holds the rights for Asil Mutfak across the MENA region. It is a halal bovine bone broth in powdered form — light, shelf-stable and simple to store, which makes it as practical for regional distribution as it is for e-commerce.

  • Product Halal bovine bone broth — powder
  • Format 5 sachets × 12.5 g per box
  • Flavours Original, Spicy, Thyme, Parsley
  • Ingredients With turmeric, gelatin, apple cider vinegar and Himalayan salt
  • Attributes Natural collagen source · gluten-free · keto-friendly · no preservatives or artificial colours

Company

From one establishment to three divisions.

The business started small and broad, looking for anything that would bring genuine value to its customers. That instinct has not changed. What has changed is the discipline behind it.

  1. 2008

    Founded in Kuwait as Aiman Bohendi General Trading & Contracting Establishment.

  2. 2018

    Restructured from an establishment into a company under the name Art Block General Trading Company.

  3. Today

    Three divisions operating out of Kuwait — trade, food distribution and infrastructure services — with regional rights for Asil Mutfak.

How we work

  • We only take on what we can service Regional rights are an obligation, not a trophy. We do not take a line unless the supply, paperwork and channel are ready behind it.
  • Buy-and-resell, not consignment A distributor who owns their stock actually sells it. That protects both sides from ageing inventory and expiry problems.
  • Documentation before shipment Halal, certificates of origin, lab reports, bilingual labelling and the registration file — all settled before a container is booked, not after.
  • One point of accountability Whether it is a shipment or a cabling project, one person carries it from start to handover.
