Doha, Qatar: Safari Group, one of Qatar’s most trusted retail brands, has announced the opening of its eighth outlet, Safari Shopping Center – GWC Logistics Village, tomorrow, August 3, 2026. With over two decades of excellence in Qatar’s retail sector, Safari has earned the trust of customers through its unique marketing strategies, customer-centric approach, and unmatched promotional campaigns. The new outlet aims to strengthen Safari’s retail presence while providing residents of GWC Logistics Village and nearby areas with high-quality products at the most affordable prices.
The new branch marks another milestone in Safari’s rapid expansion following the successful launch of its seventh outlet at Ezdan Mall, Garrafa, on December 10, 2025. The opening of the GWC Logistics Village branch reflects the company’s continued growth and commitment to serving more communities across Qatar.
Safari Group, which launched its first hypermarket on Salwa Road on May 5, 2005, is a homegrown Qatari retail brand. While many major retail chains entered Qatar from abroad, Safari has carved its own identity by prioritizing customer satisfaction over imitation and by adopting a unique retail philosophy. The company has consistently focused on offering premium-quality products at the lowest possible prices while maintaining minimal profit margins, a principle that continues to set Safari apart in the retail industry.
To celebrate the opening of its eighth outlet, Safari has introduced an exciting “Visit & Win” promotion. Every visitor to Safari Shopping Center – GWC Logistics Village will receive a free raffle coupon without any purchase. Through this promotion, two Chevrolet Captiva SUVs will be awarded to lucky winners.
The promotion will run from August 3 to November 4, 2026. The first raffle draw will take place on September 17, with one winner receiving a Chevrolet Captiva. The second raffle draw will be held on November 5, where another Chevrolet Captiva will be awarded. This exclusive promotion is valid only at the Safari Shopping Center – GWC Logistics Village branch.
Offering valuable prizes without requiring any purchase has been one of Safari’s signature traditions since its inception. During the opening of its first Salwa Road outlet in 2005, Safari gave away one kilogram of gold through a no-purchase promotion. Over the years, the company has successfully conducted numerous large-scale promotional campaigns, awarding QAR 1 million, more than 30 luxury cars, kilograms of gold, cash prizes, home appliances, and many other valuable gifts. During the inauguration of its seventh outlet at Ezdan Mall, Garrafa, Safari also awarded two Tesla Model Y vehicles without requiring any purchase. Continuing this tradition, the company is now offering two Chevrolet Captiva SUVs as part of the launch celebrations for its eighth outlet.
The new outlet has been designed as a complete one-stop shopping destination, offering customers a wide selection of everyday essentials under one roof. Shoppers can enjoy premium-quality fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh seafood, meat, freshly baked bakery products, hot food, toys, stationery, cosmetics, garments, electronics, personal care products, and many more. Well-trained staff and a fast, efficient billing system will ensure a smooth and enjoyable shopping experience.
Safari’s highly popular “10, 20, 30” promotion will also be available at the new branch. This iconic promotion offers a wide range of essential products at exceptionally affordable prices and has become one of Safari’s most recognized customer initiatives. In addition, the company will continue celebrating major festivals such as Qatar National Day and Sports Day, Eid, Onam, Christmas, Pongal, bringing together customers from diverse cultures and communities.
With the opening of its eighth outlet, Safari Group aims to further strengthen its presence across different regions of Qatar. According to Zainul Abideen, Deputy Chairman and Managing Director of Safari Group, plans are actively progressing to launch several more outlets across the country in the near future.
