Talal Abu-Ghazaleh

Palastinien businessman

Talal Abu-Ghazaleh is remembered in business for decisions whose consequences outlived the decade that made them.

The record lists Talal Abu-Ghazaleh as Palastinien businessman.

Talal Abu-Ghazaleh was born at Jaffa in 1938. His recorded nationality is Jordan. He was educated at American University of Beirut.

Post-war business was mass-market and increasingly multinational, managed by professionals rather than owners.

He worked as entrepreneur.

What a company leaves behind is usually infrastructure, habit and employment rather than a name.

Recognition followed: Knight of the Legion of Honour (1985).

That the business was built from Jordan shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.
