Organization Information

Al Yousuf Motors was established more than 40 years ago, in 1969, with the domestic franchise of Daihatsu Motors of Japan. Since then, the company has strengthened immeasurably, and grown into a solid enterprise that is renowned for its network of showrooms, comprehensive service and parts center, and above all, strong customer relationships.

A key factor of our success is the unique ‘store within a store’ concept, dedicated to selling original bikes and biking accessories that are sourced from over 40 leading suppliers in 25 countries.

Over the years, our name has come to be associated with trust, reliability and success, and these remain main advantages for our international partners. Meanwhile, we constantly seek opportunities to foster and build associations with new global brands who are looking to expand into local markets.
