3. Let us know about your latest products and your markets. Do you have any export or only support the Qatar market?
Due to the problems faced by the Qatari market from the lack of specialists in the field of clothing, suits, and uniforms, where the Qatari market is managed through small workshops that do not meet the quality, price, and shipping dates.

Hence the challenge came through our company to develop a new map of the Qatari market by supporting the consumer, starting from design, production, international specifications, quality, and on-time shipping dates, and the biggest challenge is our new local brand to produce the suit, jacket, and Garment under the slogan (Made in Qatar), The Qatari market is the beginning and through it, our expansion to the Gulf and international markets will continue

4. How do you evaluate the garment and textile industry in Qatar?

The Qatari market is a promising market and depends on most of its products of clothing and textiles from foreign markets. To achieve self-sufficiency in this field, it will give a great opportunity for investors to invest in the same field.
We are the only factory in Qatar specialized in the field of ready-made garments, and also to this day there is no textile factory or carpet factory.

5. As a textile manufacturer in Qatar, how do you evaluate the textile and fashion industry in the Middle East and Africa and it’s potential for the Future?

Through my experiences and studies in this field, I see that the market in the Middle East and Africa needs some development and challenges and that the vision should be quality and price together, not just price, and this is the role of brands and international companies to invest in this logical.

6. You are an expert in the nonwoven sector as well, what do you think about the nonwoven sector in Qatar and its future?

The field of non-woven fabrics is currently not available in the Qatari market and I have actually done a feasibility study for this field and this field is the future, but I am waiting for the right investor. for sure there is a great opportunity for investing in Qatar nonwoven sector for international companies and investors
