“The last 42 years have given us plenty of reasons to celebrate. Over the last four decades we have made remarkable progress in all areas including our brand portfolio, infrastructure and service capabilities.

The first step was to establish the Jumbo stores to provide a footprint across the country which is now 13 stores strong with a couple more in the pipeline. Today Jumbo stores witness an average footfall of over 2000 customers per day who look out for their favourite products in the consumer electronics, home appliances, IT, mobile phones and accessory categories. Its unique loyalty program “Mukafa” has gained massive popularity with simple and more rewarding options and priority delivery, discount on service and spare parts.
Today Jumbo is known for many international and world-class brands such as LG, Ariston, Indesit, Harman Kardon, JBL, Brother, Kenwood, Blueair, Nutribullet, Morphy Richards, Awei, and Mr Light.
Director & CEO, C.V. Rappai who has been a founding member & a key driving force behind the growth of Jumbo Electronics in Qatar, remarked, “With the modernisation and development of infrastructure in Qatar, Jumbo forayed into the MEP and B2B business which now caters to a diverse customer base across a wide spectrum of clients from large private companies to the top government organisations involved in the infrastructure development of the country. In the MEP space, Jumbo closely works with brands such as Bosch, Siemens, Cisco, Interel, Hi KOKI & Beldon. Today, Jumbo conducts its business under five major verticals of Retail, Distribution, B2B & MEP and Service, making it a total solution provider in the state of Qatar.’’
