FMCG Distributorship in
Sharq
Pest control, hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care — six brands, one agreement.
شرقAbout Sharq
The waterfront business district, with hotels and head offices.
Sharq lies within the governorate of Al Asimah (Capital), Kuwait. 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 Sharq?
Sharq shares the climate of Kuwait: a long, hot summer with sealed, air-conditioned interiors that keep indoor insect pressure running all year rather than peaking for a season.
Because Sharq is a commercial centre, the mix skews toward household insecticides, home care, air care and shoe care. Getting that weighting right at the opening order matters more here than the size of the order itself.
- Household insecticides
- Home care
- Air care
- Shoe care
Which pest control products sell in Sharq?
Of the seven categories on the agreement, pest control moves the most units in Sharq, concentrated in cockroach aerosols, gel baits and mosquito liquid vaporisers.
Goodbye covers the household insecticide lines and Podo the dedicated rodent-control systems; both sell into modern trade and traditional trade in Sharq under the same distribution agreement as the hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands.
- Cockroach aerosols
- Gel baits
- Mosquito liquid vaporisers
- Coils and personal repellents
- Fly and lizard traps
Which channels carry volume in Sharq?

How stock reaches Sharq
