With the decision to grow, Al-Nawasi enters a new phase that is no longer business-as-usual. Many changes have been benchmarked for the year 2008 in order to keep pace with the sales growth that we expect. In order to prepare for these changes, our office revamp and extension is just the beginning. Al-Nawasi extends office to occupy an additional floor in their existing premises, extending sales and support departments to offer a better experience.
