Origin Oman Portal welcomes Tabreed Oman

"At Tabreed Oman we place great importance on being part of the local business community," commented Edward McNally, Tabreed Oman, CEO. "We are therefore delighted to have become a member of the Origin Oman portal and in doing so show our support for the Origin Oman Think Local Campaign."

The CEO went on to say, "The Origin Oman Campaign is a great initiative. We at Tabreed Oman applaud its values and share its commitment to strengthening the local business community and thereby stimulating the national economy and helping create employment opportunities; something that is particularly pertinent in today's global financial situation. What's more, as a company that has eco-stewardship at the heart of our values, we fully endorse the campaign's environmental philosophy - especially as regards cutting carbon emissions."

The Origin Oman Campaign encourages the use of local suppliers and service providers and promotes the economic, social and environmental benefits that this engenders, "The Oman business community is full of quality producers and service providers and the Origin Oman Campaign is about getting that message out," says Ibtisam Al Faruji, Origin Oman's Marketing Director. "Buying local and tapping in to local service providers means we can help the domestic economy, encourage the creation of local jobs and we can be sure of the quality we're getting. This aspect of the Origin Oman Campaign, that buying local means buying quality, is vitally important."

"We need to show people that Oman-made goods and locally offered services are of an excellent standard and match, if not surpass, the quality of their international counterparts. In this respect, we're particularly pleased to welcome Tabreed Oman as a member of the campaign - they are a company that makes innovative use of technology and is underpinned by a dedication to quality combined with a serious commitment to the environment. They showcase exactly what Origin Oman means," Al Faruji added.

Infocomm's Zahran Al Balushi and Origin Oman webmaster added, "originoman.om has so many advantages for both service providers and manufacturers, especially as it's one of the first places companies wanting to do business in the sultanate look. The portal also has a great role to play in strengthening the local business community as by presenting a united front through originoman.om local businesses can get better recognition regionally and internationally. On top of that, there's no charge for registering, members can advertise their job vacancies and career opportunities and of course they can tap into various initiatives run by the Origin Oman Campaign free of charge."
