In December, Al-Futtaim Retail Supply Chain invited all its trade partners to an award ceremony to honor their role in the company's growth. Agility was presented with a Service Excellence Award in recognition of its work, in particular with Toys R Us.
Basem Chbaklo, Agility Deputy CEO, Middle East and Africa, and Majed Zambaraji, Country Manager UAE, accepted the award on behalf of Agility from Jim McCallum, Group Director, Al-Futtaim Retail.
"It is very gratifying for us that Agility has been recognized at this event," Chbaklo said. "We have worked with Toys R Us in Dubai since 2005 and have developed a strong partnership. This award is indicative of the high quality solutions Agility brings to the Al Futtaim group."
