Established in 1974 in Mumbai by Founder & Chairman Mr. Manohar Lahori, Palmon Group is one of the longest-standing companies in Jafza. Mixing their knowledge of the Middle East with their expertise in specific industries, over the last 35 years Palmon Group has gained numerous awards, recognition, and certificates of appreciation for its role in the growth of the manufacturing industry in the UAE.
After meeting with Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem in 1984 when stopping off in Dubai’s Jebel Ali, Mr. Manohar Lahori decided to open a factory in the UAE. Mr. Sulayem had been charged by the late Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai, with the task to launch a selection of companies around the Jebel Ali manmade harbour area, that would then fuel great trade links with other countries.
Setting up the Palmon Group in Dubai the following year, the company has since gone from strength to strength, with Mr. Lahori being recognized with various esteemed awards, including being on the Forbes List for Top Indian Leaders in the Arab World, Arabian Business Top Leaders, Indian Power List and Top Indian Businessmen in the GCC. Branching out to much more than its original core business of clothes manufacturing, the group now has over 1000 employees across 12 companies.

We are passionate about education and to convey its importance to students around the world. Education in every sense is one of the fundamental factors of development. No country can achieve sustainable economic development without substantial investment in human capital. Education enriches people’s understanding of themselves and world. It improves the quality of their lives and leads to broad social benefits to individuals and society. Education raises people’s productivity and creativity and promotes entrepreneurship and technological advances. In addition, it plays a very crucial role in securing economic and social progress and improving income distribution.
Education also creates awareness which is extremely important for sanity and growth of humanity. Education can truly make or break an individual, because it builds and develops a person's belief, ideologies and values. Education gives the ability to think with reason, pursue dreams and aspirations in life and live a respectable life in the society. Education futures education. It has a ripple effect.
We are committed to provide education and have two programs active in India
Harmony House is an Indian registered, non-profit organisation in Gurgaon, just outside of Delhi, India. They have transformed two villas into full-time community centres for women and children, where they are offered education, food, medication, hygiene facilities and social services that they would otherwise be unable to access in the slums they live in.
They are dedicated to improving the lives of our children on a physical, emotional and intellectual level and aim to give enriching and memorable experiences to each and every child.
Harmony House’s key objectives are to provide a safe, fun, educational and loving environment for children and women living in the nearby slums. With many of its children attending school for only a few hours in the morning or not at all, Harmony House allows them to break away from the harsh climate of their usual surroundings and spend their free time in an enjoyable, stimulating and nurturing atmosphere. They also provide breakfast, lunch and evening snacks to all, hygiene facilities, medication and social services.
They have started vocational classes for the older kids to help them have a better future. The courses are currently focusing on yoga, stitching and beautician. The objective is to train these kids so by the time they are 18 they can pick up respectable jobs and have enough training and experience to back them up for a better standard of living.
Palmon supports education of few children every year at Harmony House and provides support at times of need like Covid 19.
Palmon Foundation provides students aspiring to study further then 10th grade with scholarships to peruse higher studies.
They are selected carefully with a formal interview and made to commit to their selected education field and term. Scholarship is granted based on the determination and ability to fulfill their promise of being discipline and achieving their best. Students are often from families that are below poverty line in India. They are vetted and mentored throughout the higher education for emotional strength and to remain motivated.
Due to the circumstances in these households the parents especially the father is also involved and held responsible for the fulfillment of the student’s commitment to ensure close to zero dropouts of the program. The program runs diligently and caters to all aspects of achieving success for each student.
