AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Everyday Costs: Unilever is raising prices as Iran-related energy and commodity costs mount, adding to warnings from food and household brands of further increases. Iran’s annual inflation hit 88.7% in October, squeezing households already cutting essentials. Retail Expansion: Primark has opened its first Qatar store in Doha, extending its Gulf presence. Retail space take-up also rose 19% despite cautious consumer sentiment. Digital Shopping: YouTube has enabled in-video product sales in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Egypt, while Türkiye’s e-commerce sales are forecast to surge during November promotions. Regional Design: Doha announced 20 finalists for its 2026 Design Doha Prize, including contenders in product and furniture design; winners receive funding, mentorship and retail opportunities.
