About the brand

The Kadooli Group has a strong foothold in the market through its retail trading supermarket. In 1979, Kadooli Abdullah Haji and his brother Abu Baker Kadooli introduced the first ‘Kadooli supermarket’.

Kadooli Group is committed to providing exceptional value to their customers in the form of high-quality products at everyday low prices.

Many other outlets have emerged over the years. The growth of the company has taken a steady pace.

a message from the Chairman,

“Whilst reflecting on the journey, I realized how far we’ve come since the dream of creating the ultimate shopping experience was first conceived. In the recent era of widespread globalization, we at the Kadooli Group, place a high value on attaining our customers’ needs which is crucial to our company’s rapid growth. Our mission has always been to provide the highest quality products and services at the most competitive prices to provide the best shopping experience possible. We can state that the years we have had in the past have been essential, and it is clear that we have worked diligently to provide excellent performance to focus on customer loyalty.

Moreover, with the advancement of time, I learned that, while dark clouds will occasionally hover and cover the everlasting sky. Over the year, we faced pressure and competition from both internal and external influences. These were challenges and opportunities for the Company’s business and operation. We took advantage of this wonderful opportunity to grow into one of the most renowned businesses in various sectors, capturing the trust of a diverse community.

Our Humble beginning was outlined in Al Rashidiya, Dubai with a small retail trading unit. It was my turning point in life, from one supermarket, there emerged multiple stores under the name of Kadooli Group. I would also like to express my gratitude towards my business partners who bought my original idea and vision to be. Now, Kadooli has a long-standing presence in a variety of industries, including electronics, pharmacies, cafeterias, restaurants, and supermarkets throughout Dubai and Ajman.

The success of the company would not have been possible without the hard work of our employees and our reliable vendors. They have established Kadooli as one of the oldest groups in the market today. By giving our customers the best service possible with everything one would need under one roof, we will explore for years to come.”
