Hoban Group, South Korea's construction, property development, and manufacturing conglomerate, said Monday that it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Saudi Arabia's Aramco, the world's largest energy company, for mutual cooperation.
The two companies agreed to work together and support each other for Hoban Group's business in Saudi Arabia in the fields of construction and manufacturing.
Hoban Construction and Hoban E&C, construction arms of the group, have agreed to work on the kingdom's infrastructure and underground utility projects.
