In this podcast No. 17 of “Khatt”, we review the inspiring success story of a project that started amidst challenges, during one of the most difficult days in Kuwait. Shortly after the liberation of Kuwait, partners Faisal Al-Ghadouri and Saad Al-Sanad decided to turn their vision into reality by establishing Al-Faisal Sweets, which started as a small bakery and has become one of the most important names in the sweets industry in Kuwait today. From day one, the work was full of challenges, but the determination and clear vision of the partners led them to build a brand that is valued for quality and excellence. Over the course of thirty years, “Al-Faisal Sweets” has grown thanks to its commitment to providing high-quality products, and gaining the trust of the Kuwaiti public who have come to see Al-Faisal Sweets as part of their day. Finally, after three decades of continuous success, “Al-Faisal Sweets” reached a historic sale deal worth more than 32 million US dollars, becoming a testament to the importance of vision, planning and determination.
