MUSCAT: Oman Oil Marketing Company (Omanoil) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry (OCCI), represented by its Commercial Franchise Center, in a move set to create new growth opportunities for qualified Omani franchise brands.
The agreement reinforces the shared commitment of both parties to empower small and medium enterprises, strengthen Oman’s franchise ecosystem and create sustainable investment opportunities that advance local added value and support the objectives of Oman Vision 2040.
Omanoil will make a range of locations available at selected fuel stations across the Sultanate of Oman for qualified graduates of the Commercial Franchise Program. The sites will provide participating Omani brands with a valuable platform to expand their market presence, reach new customers and benefit from Omanoil’s nationwide retail network.
Further elevating the profile of participating brands, Omanoil will utilise the smart screens at its fuel stations to support OCCI events. This contribution will place Omani franchise concepts in the spotlight, broaden their customer reach and build momentum around the Chamber’s key initiatives.
Tarik Mohammed Al Junaidi, Chief Executive Officer of Oman Oil Marketing Company, said: “At Oman Oil Marketing Company, we believe our service station network can serve as more than a point of convenience for customers; it can also be a practical platform for Omani businesses to grow and reach new markets. This partnership with OCCI creates meaningful opportunities for qualified franchise brands to expand their presence, strengthen their commercial readiness and connect with customers across the Sultanate.”
The one-year agreement lays the foundation for broader collaboration on marketing initiatives, exhibitions, events and knowledge-sharing programmes that support franchising and entrepreneurship.
Ends.
