Mr. Shameem Mosafeer
- Mosafeer - Large shares in SEMDEX, swiss banks...etc.
- Espitalier Noel - ENL group
- Lagesse
- Curimjee
- Rawat ? - BAI
hmm, never heard of the name Mosafeer until now. Where did you get this information from?
It's generally accepted that there are five richest families who hold the mauritian economy, namely
Lagesse
Harel
Dalais
Espitalier Noel
Currimjee.
However, others have undoubtedly climbed the hierarchy in the last 15-20 years. Gujadhur, Ramdanee, Rawat or even Jugnauth. As for the wealthiest person, I guess it must be Thierry Lagesse.
if the person has preference shares which are generally negociated outside the public stock market and use a company or trust, people won't know who
there is someone else who is richer than he is, this person owns a black lamborghini gallordo which was bought new, my dad knows him personally, but i wont say who he is for his privacy!
well well well...maybe even i know him,he has a big company dealing in selling cars,but he don't have 1 lamborghini...but 2 :)
i want to see one of the car can you send the photo my email adresse adityabissoonee@gmail.com
please send me...............
There are three lamborghinis in Mauritius
Hello. If you are on instagram can you pls send me a msg @car_fanatics_mauritius
we don't need instagram when we have cleverdodo
the richest family is the joomun family. they have business around the world like, singapore,dubai,south africa los angeles. and i had been saying this because it was kept highly secret. they are involve also in many illegal activities.
Hmm, illegal activities seem to be on the rise these days ;)
However I think that the richest people here are foreigners (could be south africans) who own large estates on our island including big businesses and 5 star hotels.

Please how can Someone buy a car on dutyfree.what is the %
If you have a question of your own, please ask here. This has nothing to do with what we're currently discussing.
Don't have the name but it may be the person who lastly won the Jackpot Loto
Well, no doubt the mighty Lagesse.
Actually they control Mauritius, meaning our PM is restrained by Lagesse.
its depend anyone could be the richest person
The Prime Minister
the montocchio family I guess
Who are they? Any background info to justify your answer?
our prime minister surely..
Well, very naughty post..
Hope not started by Mauritius Revenue Authority...
;-)
It's just for public knowledge...to put a title to a name I suppose. You haven't suggested anyone yet, please do.
Hmm.. Publicly available info will be publicly available to MRA, No tax audit required.. ;-)
Joked apart, I know NOT much.. but I guess the guys from BAI are the richest as they are Business Tycoons.
May be wrong but I am sure it hurts no one..
Cheers and Bon Week-end!
family dale and Lagesse
no,your all wrong,except for the ones who cited Lagesse.There are 5 main(richest) families in Mauritius.Its the Harel,Lagesse,Rogers,Gadjadhur,and the last i forgot.but Rawat and so on aren't in it.so just imagine the fortune of these 5 families.:)
Can you back up your claim by citing the source where you got that information from?
In fact, you can see this in the annual business magazine(it give all great businesses of mauritius,in order..from the most profitable and so on.and also its well known...for the lagesse its the Mon loisir group...and naturally they are all of them shareholders in all major companies of mauriitus.
Gujadhur family owns more than 20% of land in Mauritius
The richest Mauritian is Dawood Rawat and he lives in Bahamas and Mauritius. He is the majority shareholder for the British American Insurance and have shares in all the major group in Mauritius. 2nd is a Liz Quindron who lives in flic en flac and who made her fortune by stealing in the UK.
Correct spelling is Lise Coindreau. Her fortune is based on real estate. It started small [here in Mauritius, not in UK] and its rapid expansion is attributed to her remarkable business acumen.
She is the most successful businesswoman and probably the richest woman in Mauritius, but in general ranking she is far lower than 2nd.
That's interesting. Can you cite the source where you got that information from? Also I couldn't get any information on Liz Quindron when Googling her name.
And also he is the director of Appolo bramwell :)
Are you guys dumb? Lagesse is nothing compared to Currimjee and Jaulim!
Jaulim and Currimjee were rich in the past..maybe the richest at that time. but their fortune has come to a stand still. they still do have a lot of money but nowadays lagesse, maurel, espitalier noel, kalachand, rawat all sit at the top
i think also that the lagesse family is the wealthiest in mauritius..
Isn't it unfair? Those colonials came in first and their blood relatives still own a large portion of Mauritius. Pfft..They don't require education. They've got it all from birth..A serious advantage. Should we Mauritius amend colonial law? I mean Mauritius has been independent since 78, and all Mauritians are as Mauritian as any other Mauritian. How can they still own??
The director of phoenix Bev and Swan are Rivalland brothers. Former Senior adviser to the PM was their dad. I don't think they are that wealthy. The two brothers are paid directors in the IBL group whose main shareholders with voting power are the Lagesse
I am the future richest man in Mauritius :P
The one who has the most beautiful heart and brain
