Writing this message from my office bustling with people, attending in-person staff and customer gatherings appears now as entering a new chapter – a step closer to a post-pandemic world. It’s indeed delightful to see more people enjoying each other’s company away from a virtual-only setting. I start by thanking each one of you for your hard work and commitment to making this a seamless transition.

In line with the industry trends and changing business environment, we brought out multiple updates to support the business – Top line growth, Diversification, and Staff Engagement. All our business lines registered impressive topline growth during H1 2022. We signed a supply agreement with Valvoline to distribute their products in Saudi Arabia with sales already kicked off. This is a major step to support our diversification initiative. We are thankful to all the team members who worked on this strategic initiative.
