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. For 35 years, the Farah Trading & Contracting Company was the exclusive licensee of Westinghouse Electric and its
successor company Cutler/Hammer (Eaton) for electrical distribution products in the Middle East
In February 2010, Farah Trading and Contracting Company reached an agreement to distribute GE General Electric
(Electrical Distribution Products) in the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and Jordan; to complement their own brand of
Circuit Protection Devices. On October 2010 Qatar’s first electrical equipment manufacturing facility was formally inaugurated, in Doah, by the
Minister of State for Energy and Industry Affairs. It will manufacture and assemble GE General Electric’s low voltage
switchgear. October 2005 FTC Group Becomes Authorized distributor for Microsoft
