BuildMate has announced a strategic partnership with General Lighting Power (GLP), a leading distributor of electrical, lighting, and instrumentation products in the Kingdom.
August 4, 2025
GLP has evolved from a wholesale and retail distribution giant into a comprehensive supplier serving Saudi Arabia’s rapidly growing infrastructure sectors. With a strong presence across major segments, including power and utility, industrial and oilfield, and public sector construction, GLP brings a rich portfolio of in-demand electrical and lighting components essential to projects of every scale.
By integrating GLP’s extensive product availability and stock capacity with BuildMate’s digital procurement platform, the partnership will ensure construction players can meet tight delivery timelines, satisfy complex technical specifications, and reduce delays caused by fragmented sourcing channels.
“As we expand our network of strategic partnerships, we’re proud to welcome General Lighting Power into the BuildMate ecosystem,” said Mr. Abdulrahman Badrah, CEO of BuildMate. “GLP brings deep-rooted expertise in electrical and lighting distribution across Saudi Arabia, and their presence significantly strengthens our ability to serve contractors with the speed, accuracy, and reliability they need. This partnership reflects our commitment to creating a smarter construction supply chain.”
Eng. Muneer Alwattar, CEO of GLP, added: "Partnering with BuildMate is a natural next step in our journey of evolution. As Saudi Arabia enters a transformative phase of development, our mission is to support contractors with readily available products and dependable service".
This partnership bridges digital innovation with decades of market expertise, creating a streamlined pathway for contractors and developers to access critical materials faster, more reliably, and with full visibility, particularly in high-spec and time-sensitive projects.
