Mohammed Hassan Al Naimi—the dynamic CEO of ACT Group—has emerged as a transformative figure in Saudi Arabia’s industrial and logistics sectors. His leadership is synonymous with innovation, strategic foresight, and an unwavering commitment to aligning business practices with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. Under his guidance, the Arabian Consolidated Trading Group (ACT) has evolved into a diversified industrial powerhouse with a growing global footprint.
A Multifaceted Industrial Legacy
Al Naimi’s leadership is grounded in robust economic expertise, shaped by international education and a track record of executive excellence. Since assuming the role of CEO, he has spearheaded ACT Group’s expansion into high-growth sectors such as:
- Heavy equipment rental
- Construction logistics
- Industrial services
- Medical supplies
These initiatives have diversified the company’s portfolio and cemented its role as a strategic partner in multiple verticals.
Notably, ACT Group has become a critical enabler of Saudi Arabia’s infrastructure boom, providing essential support to flagship Vision 2030 megaprojects such as NEOM and Qiddiya—ventures aimed at transforming the Kingdom into a global industrial and entertainment leader.
Strategic Expansion and Global Ventures
Perhaps the most defining aspect of Al Naimi’s tenure has been ACT Group’s international growth strategy. In a bold and visionary move, the company invested nearly £200 million in the United Kingdom, securing access to advanced technologies and expanding its logistics infrastructure in Western markets.
“We are committed to scaling our operations while ensuring we contribute meaningfully to the communities and economies we operate in. Our UK investment is a stepping stone toward a global presence grounded in value creation and innovation.”

Sustainability as a Core Principle
Al Naimi’s strategy is also deeply rooted in sustainability and digital transformation. As global industries pivot to more responsible practices, ACT Group has:
- Adopted real-time fleet tracking
- Implemented automated warehouse management systems
- Reduced emissions through digital logistics solutions
Future plans include investments in electric vehicles and alternative fuels, reinforcing the company’s long-term vision for eco-friendly logistics and construction operations. These steps reflect ACT’s alignment with Vision 2030’s environmental goals.
Empowering Local Talent
Another cornerstone of Al Naimi’s leadership is his dedication to developing Saudi human capital. ACT Group has launched internationally benchmarked training programs focused on:
- Safety standards
- Technology integration
- Operational efficiency
These initiatives support Saudization efforts by equipping Saudi nationals for critical roles, thereby strengthening the domestic workforce and preparing the Kingdom for a competitive industrial future.
The Road Ahead
Looking forward, ACT Group plans to expand into Asia and North America, while deepening its presence across Europe. Al Naimi envisions ACT Group as a regional and global benchmark for operational excellence, sustainability, and innovation.
As Saudi Arabia undergoes an unprecedented economic transformation, ACT Group stands as both a contributor and a beneficiary—driven by a visionary leader who exemplifies the potential of the Kingdom’s private sector on the world stage.
