From modest beginnings to the forefront of environmental change. The first chapters of the averda story began in Beirut, Lebanon, when Maysarah Khalil Sukkar founded his first company, Sukkar Engineering. The company went on to become the country’s leading provider of processing machinery for consumer goods.

In 1970, with a simple idea and vision to change the region’s perspective on waste, Sukkar Engineering moved to Saudi Arabia to research and develop ways to provide people with the best waste management solutions. Backed with decades of expertise in the industry, in 1993, the company returned to Lebanon with a deep understanding of the region’s waste management requirements, and a new vision for a country’s recovery. Sukleen was born.

The company was awarded the rights to design, implement and operate a system to manage the country’s waste.

Sukleen since, has become a household name that’s synonymous with waste management. It’s this spirit of getting the job done that continues to live on in everything that we do. At the forefront of environmental progress and change, today, averda is the leading waste management group in the Middle East and Africa. Our success story continues to be written through the millions of consumers, businesses and governments we partner with, every day.
