Project Overview

With 18 years in stone masonry, I am launching Marble and More to rebuild my dream after the Lebanese banking crisis claimed my savings. Based in Choueifat region of Beirut this factory will produce high-quality marble and granite locally, creating jobs and reducing import reliance. My goal is to raise 125,000 Euro for a specialized hangar, bridge saw, and generator. Together, we will prove that our expertise and industry can thrive from zero

For 18 years, I lived and breathed the stone industry. My hands have shaped the marble that sits in homes and businesses across Lebanon. But seven years ago, the banking crisis changed everything. Like thousands of my fellow citizens, my life savings—the fruit of two decades of hard labor—disappeared overnight.

I was left with an empty office and a silent workshop. But while the banks took our capital, they could not take our expertise, our resilience, or our determination to rebuild.

Marble & More is my answer to the crisis. It is a mission to stop relying on expensive imports and start producing world-class Lebanese stone products once again.

The Mission: Why Now?

Lebanon is currently trapped by a reliance on imported goods, making construction and renovation unaffordable for many. By establishing a local, high-precision marble and granite factory in Beirut, we will:

• Create Jobs: Provide stable employment for local craftsmen and technicians.

• Reduce Costs: Offer high-quality stone at local prices by removing import fees and international shipping.

• Support the Economy: Keep "Lebanese Dollars" inside Lebanon to help stabilize our industrial sector.

What We Need: The €125,000 Goal

To move from an empty office back to a functioning factory floor, we need the right tools. We are raising €125,000 to secure the core infrastructure of the business.

Every euro raised goes directly toward production assets:

• Industrial Hangar: Securing and prepping a professional space in Beirut.

• High-Precision Bridge Saw: The "heart" of the factory for accurate cutting.

• Polishing Machine: To ensure a world-class finish on every slab.

• Power Independence: A heavy-duty generator to bypass the daily power cuts and ensure production.

Transparency & Trust

I have managed projects across this country for 18 years. I know the suppliers, I know the stone, and I know the market. This isn't just a dream; it is a ready-to-execute plan. We have the "know-how"—we just need the infrastructure to start the saws again.

By supporting this project, you aren't just buying machinery; you are investing in the idea that Lebanese industry can rise again.

How you can help:

1. Donate: Every contribution, no matter the size, gets us closer to our first cut.

2. Share: Send this page to anyone who believes in the power of local manufacturing.

Join the Revival and let's build Marble & More together.

Thank you.

I am a master stone mason with 18 years of experience whose dream of opening a factory was paused when the Lebanese banking crisis claimed my life savings. Despite starting again from zero, my deep technical 'know-how' remains untouched, and I am more determined than ever to build a productive future for my community. As the founder of Mable and More in Choueifat, I am asking for your partnership to turn my decades of expertise into a functioning factory that creates local jobs and strengthens Lebanese industry
