GMG, a well-being and retail conglomerate, has forged a partnership with Amazon in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) to enhance the online shopping experience in the region.

Under this alliance, customers can enjoy exciting deals across a wide selection from GMG’s key categories, such as Sports, Health & Beauty, and Everyday Goods. In response to the surging demand for fast, convenient and quality-focused services, the partnership enables faster delivery of high-demand products and expands access to globally recognized and trusted brands from the GMG portfolio – all through the trusted Amazon shopping experience customers have come to know and love.

This agreement will support GMG’s omnichannel strategy by harnessing Amazon best practices in AI, logistics, and customer service technology. This move also aligns with GMG’s vision of combining its robust physical retail presence with seamless digital experiences to transform the region’s retail experience.
