Q-Store: First mega lifestyle department store in Kuwait
Q-Store - located next to City Center in Shuwaikh - is the first mega lifestyle department store in Kuwait with a vast collection of electronics and home appliances, furniture, home decor, carpets, toys and much more. QStore is the exclusive distributor and partner of Sedar Curtains in Kuwait, the market leader of curtains and furnishings in the Middle East with an amazing range of curtains, wallpapers, blinds and accessories. Q-Store also has its own brands such as a German bakery (Backerei Koln), coffee shops known as Kahve Dunyasi and Bayara Kiosk or QExpress, which supplies all 16 branches of the Sultan Center with fresh premium dried fruits, nuts and spices.
Group CEO Shahid Khan said Q-Store has everything from home to office needs. “Everything is here! Some products are exclusive to us, like Sedar - we are the exclusive distributor of this brand. We have brought together all the best brands in the world and are distributing them here exclusively. The showroom is all about lifestyle. We have electronics, we have furniture, but it’s not just about having the best products - it’s a lifestyle concept, complete with solutions,” he said.
For the first time in Kuwait, Q-Store is raffling a Tesla electric car. It is considered to be the safest and most exhilarating all-electric sedan on the road. “For every KD 5 spent at Q-Store, customers get a chance to enter the draw for a Tesla,” he said.
Khan also explained the business range and concept of Q-Store. The company has three main businesses - food, non-food and BMC. “BMC provides security solutions, like at universities and airports,” Khan said. The food division includes restaurants like Kahve Dunyasi (Coffee of the World) from Turkey, with eight branches now in Kuwait. “We also have Mai Dubai, bottled water that is distributed all over Kuwait. Fruiti Juice is also owned by Q-Store. We brought a bakery concept from Germany and created our own brand Backerei Koln (Bakery of Cologne). We are now the trusted bakery product provider for all the 16 branches of the Sultan Center in Kuwait, and we are happy to serve our customers,” he said.
“For non-food, we have electronics - this concept is known to many now in Kuwait, thanks to other companies that introduced it, but the best thing about our electronics division is that we have the latest technology that is not available in their stores. So, we are different - we have unique products here that are not available there. We look for quality; we want something special and unique for our customers,” he said. A levitating stereo speaker, the thinnest TV screens and camera drones are a few of the unique products available at Q-Store.
