In addition to its own brands, Zamil Air Conditioners (ZAC) manufactures units for leading international air-conditioning manufacturers under private labeling agreements.

“Most of these are for window units and mini-splits, though the company expects to expand its original equipment manufacturer (OEM) offering in residential and light commercial units as well as under the unitary range,” says senior ZAC vice president Osama Bunyan.
“The OEM business enables our manufacturing department to maintain cost, quality and delivery competitiveness by benchmarking against global competitors”, said Bunyan. Among ZAC’s current OEM customers are Supra, Sanyo, GE, Friedrich and Trane.
Perhaps one of the most prestigious collaborations for ZAC is its joint venture partnership with GE Appliances Europe. The joint venture, Middle East Air Conditioners (MEAC), was forged in 1997 for the manufacture and marketing of GE brand of air conditioners. The shareholding between ZIIC – which is the holding company for ZAC – and GE Appliances Europe is in the ratio of 51:49. MEAC was awarded the license to manufacture window, mini-splits and ducted split air conditioners under the brand names GE, Hotpoint and RCA.
 “Today, MEAC enjoys extensive coverage in Saudi Arabia, GCC and the MENA markets including Iraq. In an ever-changing market, MEAC continually strives to blend new technologies with stylish integrated design, optimum performance and reliability offering great value to customers,” said Bunyan.
Ahmed Abdulla Al Zamil, founder and president of ZAC, has described the OEM programme as a “shining testimony” to the company’s manufacturing capabilities.
