Qatar Shell has partnered with Qatar Development Bank paving the way for local small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to supply contracts for Shell businesses in the country.
This new partnership will provide local companies and manufacturers access to new business opportunities as well as help them raise their operating standards in order to fulfil global requirements, according to a statement.
The agreement between Qatar Shell and Qatar Development Bank was signed here yesterday.
“Wherever Shell operates in the world, we are passionately committed to SMEs and local content development – not merely as an aspect of corporate social responsibility, but because it makes good business sense for us to do so. Supporting Qatar’s SME sector is an essential component of our contribution to the economic and social pillars of the Qatar National Vision 2030” said Wael Sawan, Qatar Shell Companies managing director and chairman.
“We are proud to partner with QDB to promote ever greater local content in our procurement spend and have confidence in the quality of local suppliers and in their ability to add value to our operations,” Sawan added.
