Why AQX for Saudi Arabia?
Saudi retail is dominated by a handful of powerful hypermarket chains — Danube, Tamimi, Carrefour KSA, and Panda — that require strict vendor compliance before your products can appear on their shelves. This means Halal certification, Arabic labeling meeting Saudi retail standards, shelf-ready palletizing with retailer-specific barcodes, and a local Saudi importer-of-record. AQX manages this entire onboarding process for US brands entering Saudi retail for the first time. We have existing vendor relationships with the major chains and can dramatically accelerate the time from first shipment to first store scan.
