Abstract
This chapter studies the case of a family business that was founded in the year 1953 in Beirut by an ambitious poor man named Mohammad Dakroub. Mohammad built with his sons a company that generates a business in millions of dollars due to his innovative marketing strategy and smart vision. This case portrays a family business that started with strong family ties and ended up with a conflict and break up in the family. The uniqueness of this story lays in how one of the brothers made his brother accept his wishes even though it was not totally to his brother’s benefit.
3 The name of the business and the names of the family members are changed for personal reasons.
