Export Bahrain secures multiple deals to GCC, Indian and Asian markets

Within its relentless efforts to empower Bahrain based businesses to expand into broader horizons, Export Bahrain has recently paved the way for its customers – Arihant and Wesal Jewellers, both of which are subsidiaries of Arihant Group, the leading precious metals distributer headquartered in Bahrain, to seal multi-million US-Dollar deals with five new international customers. The announcement was made at the Bahrain pavilion at the ongoing Expo 2020 Dubai, where Export Bahrain patronised the signing of business agreements between Arihant and Wesal Jewellers and five leading merchants in Dubai, KSA and Oman and Hong Kong enabling them to seamlessly export their premium jewellery and precious products to bigger international markets.

The step comes within Export Bahrain’s unwavering commitment to support Bahrain-based businesses to expand their operations to broader horizons and explore new potential markets globally. Export Bahrain seeks to further utilise its export-focused solutions and initiatives to encourage more businesses in Bahrain to tap into new international markets through targeted support in key areas, such as export credit insurance, logistics support, access to global data and actionable market intelligence, export facilitations along with other initiatives to enable exporters to take on more challenging, high-growth export markets.

Headquartered in Bahrain since 1991, Arihant Group offers precious metals and ornaments in Bahrain.  Following a hugely successful launch and growing demands, the Group expanded its key businesses with the introduction of two other subsidiaries in Bahrain while also stretching its presence continentally by reaching UAE, Singapore and India.

Commenting on the occasion, Ms. Safa Sharif Abdulkhaliq, Export Bahrain Acting Chief Executive, stated: “We are glad to announce the signing of these agreements and look forward to accomplish additional similar partnerships between businesses in Bahrain and renowned international entities during our participation in Expo 2020 Dubai.
