01 / THE BEGINNING

Building a reputation in Dubai's most competitive industries

In Dubai's fast-paced world of design, interiors, and luxury finishes, competition is fierce and reputations are hard-earned. Yet, in just a few years, Sanjai Pirkash has transformed from a young civil engineering graduate with no local connections into the driving force behind a multi-division powerhouse delivering premium flooring, interiors, turnkey solutions, concrete products manufacturing, real estate, and media marketing across the UAE and beyond.

He began his journey with Good Hand Stones and Concrete Flooring LLC, specializing in surface finishes like Exposed Aggregate, Stamped Concrete, Micro-cement, Antique Bricks, Resin Bound and more. With increasing demand, he went on to establish his own manufacturing facility of bricks and concrete products, ensuring quality control and scalability.

What sets his journey apart is not just the scale of his achievements, but the principles that shaped them: honesty, hard work, and an unshakable belief that in business, people come before profit.

Coming to Dubai - Dreams Without Borders

A civil engineering graduate from Sindh, Pakistan, Sanjai carried with him a deep belief in honesty, hard work, and personal integrity. Limited opportunities at home pushed him to seek a professional environment where these values could flourish.

With encouragement from a friend, he moved to the UAE - and within three days, secured his first role with Saif Belhasa Holding in Sharjah. It was a beginning, but not the destination. Soon, he relocated to Dubai and entered the decorative concrete and construction sector.

MBA by Night, Construction by Day

Balancing a full-time job with a Masters in Business Excellence program at Middlesex University Knowledge Village, Sanjai's days started on construction sites and ended in classrooms from 6 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Assignments filled his nights.

In the midst of this grind, he married - and proudly attended his graduation ceremony with his wife and infant son. “It was a moment of pride I'll never forget,” he recalls.

When the Pandemic Hit

Then came 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic brought businesses across the globe to a standstill. Two of the three partners left the UAE, operations came to a halt, and salaries were frozen. It was a time of immense uncertainty, both professionally and personally.

But Sanjai wasn't ready to give up. For nine long months, he kept the company afloat, paying his employees' salaries from his own credit cards without taking a single dirham for himself.

The rise behind the brand - more than just concrete

A new chapter

His unwavering commitment did not go unnoticed. The remaining partner offered him a choice: take over the company rather than let it shut down - a closure that would have meant more than AED 1 million in unsettled dues and liabilities.

With the support of a close friend, Vinesh Kumar, Sanjai took the leap. In December 2021, they acquired the company.

Under his leadership, Good Hand Stones and Concrete Flooring LLC did not just survive - it scaled. GH stands for “Good Hand,” and everything Sanjai touches aims to reflect that name: craftsmanship, trust, and care.

“Our clients trust us not just for what we build, but for how we build it - with honesty, transparency, and full accountability,” says Sanjai.

Final words

Where “You” Matter

Every decision Sanjai makes - from product quality to employee welfare - stems from one guiding principle: Where ‘You’ Matter.

“Where You Matter”.

This is not just a slogan for Sanjai Pirkash, founder and CEO of Good Hand Stones and Concrete Flooring LLC - it is the guiding principle behind everything he has built. His rise from a civil engineering graduate in Pakistan to the head of a multi-division design and finishes group in Dubai is a powerful story of perseverance, sacrifice, and vision.

“UAE and its leadership played important role in my life. Success doesn't come easy - but it comes to those who stay honest, work hard, and never forget who they're working for. For us, every client, every employee, and every partner matters. That's why our motto is, and always will be, Where ‘You’ Matter”.
“You don't need to start with money,” he says. “Start with faith in yourself, with values, and with a reason bigger than you. If you give people your honesty, they'll give you their trust.”
