Gulf Bank distributes cash prizes to Qout Market visitors
KUWAIT: As part of its ongoing efforts to support the local community and the development of the local economy, Gulf Bank participated as a title sponsor at this year’s Qout Market. The market, which is currently in its seventh season, took place last Saturday at Abraj Park in Adailiya. At the market, Gulf Bank hosted an entertainment area with a variety of activities in which guests took home cash prizes and more.
This year’s Qout Market hosted a variety of restaurants, artisanal craft shops, farm produce, and other businesses owned by young entrepreneurs, who used this opportunity to showcase their fresh goods to the market’s visitors. Local chefs also attended the market, and prepared freshly cooked meals for market-goers. Qout Market launched its seventh season this past weekend at Abraj Park in Adailiya, and is set to take place over the course of three more Saturdays from January to March. The upcoming markets will take place on Jan 11, Feb 8, and Mar 7 from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Commenting on this year’s Qout Market, Ahmad Al-Amir, Assistant General Manager of External Communications at Gulf Bank, said: “We are very excited to be part of such a vibrant community event like Qout Market. Year after year, the market is an incredible opportunity to engage with our local community that is comprised of so many active Kuwaiti youth. We had the opportunity to meet so many creative talents and young entrepreneurs, and it makes us very proud to be able to support them as part of our ongoing efforts to encourage local businesses and young talent. We are anticipating even more beautiful days at the market in the upcoming months, and can’t wait to see what more Qout Market has in store.”
