Retailing saw a strong performance in Saudi Arabia during the review period, with growth due to a number of
factors. The country benefits from a high degree of affluence and saw a good economic performance, avoiding
recession during the global economic downturn in 2009. Retailing also benefited from the country’s young
population, with the majority of indigenous Saudis being aged below 30-years-old. Due to the conservative nature
of Saudi society there are few entertainment options, with many of these consumers thus opting to socialize in
malls and regarding shopping as a leisure pursuit. A major factor driving growth for retailing during the review
period was the strong development of shopping malls, with this air conditioned outlets housing a wide range of
offering a comfortable shopping environment.
Market Opportunity Analysis (MOA)
The Company now applies (MOA) to determine the attractiveness and success probability of opportunity. The
company must determine that the target market be located and reach with cost-effective media and trade
channels. Can the company able to give successful benefits better than their competitors? Will the financial rate

expressly.

demand increasing the youth specially are inspire by the most fashionable brands, we believe we will ultimately

7.1 IMPORTANT ASSUMPTIONS
As we are also selling our products on the credit basis, the checking of all records of sold products to the
customers will be highly imperative to be continuously detect and aware of .As this type of selling falls under our
competitive comparison, we have a great advantage that we cannot be disloyal to our consumers because Saudi
Arabia have great policy that no consumer or citizen shall leave the boundaries of the country until and unless all
remaining dues are cleared. We believe and take this as a very good opportunity to introduce the credit basis
selling in the City for the very first time, without any certain or major future mishap.
