About Hidd
The Hidd Industrial Area and Khalifa Bin Salman Port, Bahrain's main container gateway.
Hidd lies within the governorate of Muharraq, Bahrain. Dutch & Habro appoints one FMCG partner per territory here, carrying the complete range — pest control, rodent control, hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care — on a single distribution agreement.
What drives demand in Hidd?
Hidd shares the climate of Bahrain: a long, hot summer with sealed, air-conditioned interiors that keep indoor insect pressure running all year rather than peaking for a season.
Because Hidd is an industrial district, the mix skews toward bulk crawling-insect control, rodent control, industrial hygiene and value-pack home care. Getting that weighting right at the opening order matters more here than the size of the order itself.
- Bulk crawling-insect control
- Rodent control
- Industrial hygiene
- Value-pack home care
Which pest control products sell in Hidd?
Of the seven categories on the agreement, pest control moves the most units in Hidd, concentrated in rodent glue boards, bait stations and bulk crawling-insect aerosols.
Goodbye covers the household insecticide lines and Podo the dedicated rodent-control systems; both sell into institutional and camp supply and workforce-housing groceries in Hidd under the same distribution agreement as the hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands.
- Rodent glue boards
- Bait stations
- Bulk crawling-insect aerosols
- Insecticidal powder and dust
Which channels carry volume in Hidd?
In Hidd the volume moves through institutional and camp supply, workforce-housing groceries and wholesale. The strongest applications are the ones that already service those channels for a non-competing range.

- Workforce-housing groceries

How stock reaches Hidd
