Ziyad Manasir



Manasir Ziyad (born 12 December 1965 in Amman, Jordan) is a Russian businessman of Jordanian origin, the founder of Stroygazconsulting. 

Ziyad Manasir's construction firm Stroygazconsulting has close ties with Russia's state-owned gas producer, Gazprom, which has been sanctioned over Russia's role in eastern Ukraine. The sanctions have cut into Manasir's business. But Stroygazconsulting has another big client, Rosavtodor, the federal agency behind road construction in Russia. Among Stroygazconsulting's projects: metro construction in Moscow, the Kolyma highway in Russia's Far East and various sports facilities. Manasir was born in Jordan, went to Russia as an exchange student and attended the Azerbaijan Oil and Chemistry Institute. While a student, he began buying and selling computers and cars, and he later moved on to trading yellow phosphorus, timber and oil products. In the mid 1990s he bought a construction factory in Tyumen and started building residences for Gazprom workers there.
