FMCG Distributorship in
Ras Laffan

The world's largest LNG export complex — closed camps and heavy contract catering.

Ras Laffan is part of the municipality of Al Khor, Qatar. Dutch & Habro is appointing FMCG distribution partners here across its household pest control, hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands — on one agreement covering the full range.

Like the rest of Qatar, Ras Laffan runs its buildings sealed and air-conditioned for most of the year, which turns household insect control into a continuous category rather than a seasonal one.

Because Ras Laffan is an industrial district, the mix skews toward bulk crawling-insect control, rodent control, industrial hygiene and value-pack home care. We set the opening assortment against that profile rather than shipping a standard national pallet.

The pest-control range is where a Ras Laffan partner sees the fastest rotation, and here that means 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 Ras Laffan under the same distribution agreement as the hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands.

In Ras Laffan the volume moves through institutional and camp supply, workforce-housing groceries and wholesale. Route coverage in the right streets matters more than head-office presence, and we look hard at van-sales strength when assessing an application.

Stock reaches Ras Laffan through the import chain into Qatar, and territory partners typically hold four to eight weeks of cover. Lead times, reorder points and promotional support are agreed in writing before the opening order is placed.
