Why do you need a food distributor in GCC?

Posted by rima chauhan on December 8th, 2020

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is one region which most FMCG players from across the globe wish to successfully tap. This is because key markets here like Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are some of the most lucrative global markets in the FMCG category. There is increasingly profitable scope for global food companies and brands to make a mark in these competitive yet lucrative territories with their product lineups. These markets have witnessed growth in demand for highly evolved and modern food products across multiple categories over the years. Hence, it makes sense for any global player with a widespread presence throughout the region, to consider venturing into the GCC market with a leading distribution player.

Here is where suitable food distributors in Oman and UAE will be of immense help. You cannot expect to find the best product distribution network and logistics support along with warehousing facilities on your own. It is simply impractical and will lead to soaring and unnecessary expenditure in the bargain as well. It always makes more sense to opt for a trusted and reliable distribution and logistics player in the UAE and Oman who can help you get your product across to as many store shelves as possible while helping you with impeccably tailored warehousing and storage facilities in tandem with other requisite infrastructure and technologies including warehouse management systems.

You will also require a distributor with a vast retail network as well. The distribution entity should be able to help you with getting your product into leading supermarkets, retail stores and the like. In this context, you can consider choosing Al Maya Distribution, an entity of the reputed Al Maya Group which is known for having successfully introduced 50+ global food brands to this region over the years. It has its own distribution and retail network which also includes its lineup of supermarket chains throughout the region. The Group is known for its huge logistics and distribution network, encompassing 100+ vehicles and more than 1 million sq. ft. in warehousing space as well. It is also known for its expertise in technology and B2B distribution.
