Launch Your Brand in the GCC
From registration to retail shelf and marketplace listing. Niche Trading is the partner that takes international beauty and personal care brands into the Gulf and makes them sell.
Discuss Your LaunchA successful Gulf launch is rarely about the product alone. It depends on getting registration right in each market, securing the correct retail listings, and supporting the brand with the right pricing and marketing once it is on shelf. Niche Trading manages that entire chain so a brand owner does not have to assemble it country by country.
From First Shipment to Shelf
We begin with a market assessment and a registration plan, then handle import and customs, warehousing from our Doha base, and placement into the retail and digital accounts that fit the brand. We set pricing in line with each market's regulatory framework, including Ministry of Commerce price approval in Qatar, and support the launch with trade marketing and activation.
Where Your Brand Will Sell
Across Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain and Egypt, your brand can reach customers through leading retail accounts including Carrefour, Lulu, Watsons, Gold Apple, L'Etoile, Monoprix and Al Meera, and through digital channels including Noon, Amazon, Snoonu and Talabat. We currently represent more than sixty international brands, with particular depth in Korean beauty, Japanese beauty and natural and organic care.
