Farah Trading & Contracting Company

Founded in 1962 by the Farraj Family, the company is headquartered in Amman Jordan. It remains today a family owned and operated business.

In its early years the Farah Trading and Contracting Company developed into one of Jordan’s largest contracting companies, responsible for the construction of many large buildings in and
around Amman. Building on the business and management expertise gained in the original contracting business a decision was taken to redirect the company’s resources and energies
toward the manufacture and sale of circuit protection devices and electrical distribution technology. The developing electrical distribution systems throughout the Middle East provided
a need for sophisticated products that would meet both local and international standards.

Since 1974, the Farah Trading & Contracting Company has been the exclusive licensee of Westinghouse Electric and now its successor company Cutler/Hammer (Eaton) for electrical distribution products in the Middle East, continually adding to their warehousing, manufacturing, modification and test facilities.
