The Magrabi Company was first established by Dr. Amin El-Maghraby in Egypt in 1927. Proudly following in his father's footsteps, Dr. Akef El-Maghraby continued investing in the field of eye care services, and laid the foundation for Magrabi Hospitals and the Magrabi Retail Group, thus bringing the Magrabi name into prominence. The first Magrabi Optical store opened in Jeddah in Saudi Arabia in 1981 in direct combination with the local Magrabi Eye Hospital. Designed with the customer in mind, the stores’ modern look reflects the considerable effort invested to satisfy all clients’ needs.
