Established in 1938 by then Secretary of State Abdullah Saleh Al Mulla, the Group started out when the late Mr. Al Mulla partnered with a friend named Saleh Jamal to set up an electrical and domestic appliance store, soon acquiring the GEC franchise from the United Kingdom. A few years later, Abdulla Al Mulla bought Saleh Jamal's shares in the company, handing over management to his eldest son Bader. In 1947, the Bader Al Mulla and Brothers Company was created, soon acquiring the rights to distributor Chrysler vehicles in Kuwait. Expansion followed into areas of marine products, HVAC contracting, travel and industrial equipment distribution.

History
Following the founder's death in 1955, his eldest son Bader became chairman until 1969, with his brothers Najeeb and Anwar becoming his successors; Najeeb as Chairman, and Anwar as Deputy Chairman & CEO. Three years later, the Maseelah Trading Company was founded in 1972. Maseelah Trading acquired the distribution rights for Mitsubishi Motor Vehicles in Kuwait, leading to dramatic growth in the group's automotive business.
In 1978, radical changes were made to the company: A multinational board was appointed, instead of a board of only family members. The Group entered additional businesses such as environmental systems, vehicle rental and leasing, fire protection, office equipment, security services, engineering products, consumer appliances and insurance consultancy. Today, the group operates through 40+ subsidiaries and affiliates under the umbrella of Al Mulla Group Holding Company.
