Al Habib is celebrating being honored with ‘Superbrand’ status and will be presented with the award in a ‘Superbrands’ tribute event scheduled for late January 2010.
In Oman, Superbrands shortlisted 743 brands from over 3,000 brands being sold. These were then rated by a well qualified independent and voluntary Superbrands Council through a demanding and meticulous evaluation process according to the specific program criteria that ‘a Superbrand offers consumers significant emotional and/or physical advantages over its competitors which consumers want and recognize’. Of these 743 shortlisted brands, only 17 were deemed ‘superbrands’ by the panel.
Hayyan Al Lawati, Director of Al Habib commented: “I speak for everyone at Al Habib when I say how proud I am of this Superbrands award.
