Sultan is a retail store chain based in the state of Kuwait.
History
The four-decade-long story of Sultan was founded by Jamil Sultan. In 1981, he established the first self-service retail store in Kuwait; it was based in Shuwaikh and took on a Home Center format.[1] Jamil Sultan is regarded as a visionary and pioneer in the business community of Kuwait. In addition to founding Sultan, he propelled Agility Logistics, a state-owned warehouse company into a worldwide logistics firm, and he was the Vice-Chairman of National Real Estate Company Kuwait (NREC), a leading real estate investment and development firm present in the Middle East and Africa.[2]
The business ventured into the food retail industry with the opening of the Salmiya store in 1986 that is still serving customers with care as Sultan's flagship store.[1]
