His businesses spread from engineering, construction, maintenance to other services related to spheres as diverse as oil, water resources and management, chemicals, power and energy and food. Kharafi was not only working in Kuwait, but had extended his businesses to eleven countries. He had a keen interest in Egypt, where the Al Kharafi group built the port Ghalib International Marina.[1]
Al-Kharafi had construction contracts in more than 30 countries worldwide. His net worth was $10.4 billion as of 2011 and he was considered the 77th richest man in the world.[2]
