Company continues to prop up local businesses, playing its part to stimulate the UAE economy
Kibsons, a family run local UAE business for the past 40 years, is providing the much-needed lifeline and support network to during Covid-19, the company said in a recent press communiqué.
Whilst the ethos of supporting and championing local is not new for Kibsons as a business, it has never been more important than now and as such, Kibsons is stepping up and doing all they can to continue supporting existing and new brands from around the country, the press communication asserted.
“If it had not been for Kibsons and its increased sales, our business would not have survived as our main business with airlines and hotels came to a standstill,” observed Trevor Bryant, Managing Director, Harvey & Brockless, a local producer and distributor of specialty foods.
“Increased orders and on time payments truly made the difference to us at a time when our future hung in the balance,” noted Sven Mostegl, Proprietor, Baker’s Kitchen, a local company.
Kibsons is firmly committed to identifying and sourcing the best in local, offering more than 75 local brands for sale on their site. Members of the Kibsons team have been tasked with focusing their effort on this search and as always and unlike the majority of other e-commerce businesses, Kibsons asks UAE businesses for no listing or marketing fees, removing that barrier to entry for small businesses, the press continued.
‘We have always been committed to supporting local and this is very much in our ethos and the DNA of Kibsons, but now we are doubling our efforts and looking at ways that we can help these businesses save money whilst also being introduced to new potential customers through our site,” affirmed Halima Jumani, Director, Kibsons.
