Al Meera to double capital ahead of retail expansion drive

  • Qatar: Wednesday, October 10 - 2012 at 02:38

Qatar's Al Meera Consumer Goods Co has received the shareholders' approval to double its capital through a rights issue, Gulf Times has reported. The funds will be used to implement the company's aggressive expansion strategy that will see more Al Meera outlets opening up in Qatar as well as outside the Gulf country, said chairman Abdulla bin Khaled al-Qahtani. "We have signed agreements with international outlets so that our name will spread beyond our borders," he said. "International retailers such as WH Smith have signed with us to establish their brands here in Qatar. As a result, the company's position has changed, and we have become even more dominant in the retail sector," said al-Qahtani.
