HOME Centre, the largest home retailer in the Middle East, is celebrating 20 years of inspiring homes in Saudi Arabia. In the two decades since it was established in the Kingdom, the brand has expanded its reach throughout the Saudi market, with 36 stores conveniently located to offer its customers high quality products at affordable prices. Médéric Payne, CEO of Home Centre, said “we pride ourselves on our local network in the Kingdom, and firmly believe in its potential. We have grown here from a single store in 1997, to a flourishing network providing an exceptional brand experience that caters to diverse local tastes, while remaining aligned to global trends.” He added: “In an attempt to give back to the Kingdom, we make a concerted effort to remain aligned to the strategic priorities of the leadership, as is evidenced in our Saudization and feminization efforts - 48per cent of employees in the Kingdom are Saudi Nationals, of which over 21 percent are women.” Further adding to its reach across Saudi Arabia is Home Centre’s bilingual online platform on desktops and mobile phones, Homecentre.com, which enables customers across the Kingdom to browse and purchase more than 5,500 products ranging from furniture and home accessories from the comfort of their homes. Jayant Khosla, CEO of Landmark Arabia, said “we at Landmark Arabia are proud of the home-grown brand, Home Centre, as it continues on its journey in the Kingdom. In the past two decades, Home Centre has firmly established itself as a home-retail brand of choice for consumers across the country. Part of its success can also be attributed to our aim of bringing our stores closer to our customers, making their shopping experience convenient and enjoyable.” As a gesture to its loyal customers, Home Centre has announced a special Buy-2-Get-1-Free promotion on spends above SR250 at all stores across the Kingdom.
