Hypermarkets assure public about ample stocks for Ramadan

As Ramadan-related promotions and discount offers continue to push demand, there is ample supply of consumer goods during the holy month, an official of a leading hypermarket has said.

Krishna Kumar R, general manager of LuLu Hypermarket along D-Ring Road, told Gulf Times that the company “is well-prepared” for customer needs as he assured that stocks are sufficient, especially for sought-after products during Ramadan.

A few days prior to the start of Ramadan, throngs of shoppers trooped to grocery stores and hypermarkets to stockpile supplies and other provisions needed for the holy month.

Aside from LuLu, other stores have offered various offers and discounts for the celebration of Ramadan. Similarly, the Ministry of Economy and Commerce has put a price cap on more than 400 consumer products to mark the holy month under the theme “Aqal Min Al Wajeb,” which means “the least we can do” in Arabic.

Al Meera Consumer Goods Company, which offered 1,437 consumer products at cost price as part of its Ramadan campaign, is in close contact with its suppliers to keep up with customer demand.

Al Meera is collaborating with overseas suppliers to import the best items for consumers during the holy month from countries such as Turkey, Thailand, Vietnam, the US, and the UK, among others.
