Khazen Family

Khazen Family

The Khazen family has been involved in the ownership structure of Voix du Liban (VDL) radio station since 1993 when Simon Al-Khazen, the owner of the Société Moderne d’Information SAL, became the majority shareholder after a law passed, forbidding political parties to directly own media outlets. Since it was created in 1975, VDL belonged to the Phalange Party – of which Simon Al-Khazen was the vice-president. The judiciary ruled in favor of the Phalange Party and the Khazen family had to, subsequently, change the name of the radio station they lead to Voix de Tout le Liban (VDTL). Today, the Khazens own around 35% of the radio station through Société Moderne d’Information SAL. Imad Al-Khazen, son of Simon Al-Khazen, is VDTL’s CEO and one of the main shareholders; other shareholders include his brother Tarek, who owns a production company, and Ziad, the third brother working as a program manager with BoB finance.
