Arabian Medical Products Manufacturing Company, known as ENAYAH, is the Saudi manufacturer of disposable health care products specially designed for the protection of patients and the medical community. Established in late 1991, ENAYAH is a joint venture of OSHCO, Halyard Health disposable products (recently acquired by OWNS AND MINOR) and the Saudi Pharmaceutical & Medical Appliances Company (SPIMACO). Production began in 1992 at the company's plant located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

With over a 30-year long relationship with Baxter Healthcare Corporation, Arabian Health Care (AHC), has been importing, marketing and distributing a vast array of Baxter products into Saudi Arabia. As the need for local production became more evident for logistical and strategic purposes, the decision was made to establish a joint venture in the name of Baxter Company Limited (BCL) in the fall of 2009. The new company marked the opening of Baxter’s 58th factory worldwide and the first facility in the Middle East. BCL manufactures intravenous medical solutions and peritoneal dialysis solutions for renal patients and is able to serve its customers in Saudi Arabia and multiple countries in the region and around the world.

Colgate-Palmolive Company, a world leader in personal and household care products, was officially relaunched in Saudi Arabia in October of 1986 and in 1990, Colgate-Palmolive Arabia Ltd. (CPAL) was established as a joint venture between OSHCO and the New York-based company.

OSHCO’s affiliation with Kimberly-Clark dates back to 1955 when the General Trading Company began importing the famous Kleenex brand of facial tissues into Saudi Arabia. Over the years and with the right market conditions the simple distribution relationship was able to evolve into multiple standalone joint venture partnerships with production facilities, independent marketing, sales and distribution networks within the country and throughout the region.
