Al Suwaidi realized early in his career that the main secret to success is to bring passion and integrity in what you do. Driven by grand ambition and vision, he engineered the first Arab made domestic tactical vehicle in 1997. He put together a competent team to design and build the 4X4 vehicle capable of withstanding the harsh climate and rugged terrain of the Middle East. The relentless pursuit of this vision culminated in producing a world class tactical vehicle branded as NIMR. NIMR Automotive soon attracted strategic partnership from Tawazun, an Abu Dhabi Government owned company and a subsidiary of Mubadala. Bin Jabr Group now actively supports further NIMR developments as a partner of Tawazun.
