Leminar meets Kuwait’s growing HVAC demands with strategic expansions
Dubai, UAE, 19th May 2016: Leminar Air Conditioning Company WLL, the leading HVAC distribution company in the GCC, has expanded its showroom in the Al Rai area of Kuwait City, in response to the increasing demand for its products from Kuwait’s growing construction sector.
The revamped showroom is three times larger and occupies a prime spot at the Al Fouzan Commercial complex. The company also leased a warehouse in Doha Industrial Area to store additional supplies and ensure that stock requirements are met in a timely and seamless manner.
The investments are in line with Leminar’s growth strategy for Kuwait, which has a burgeoning construction sector driven by Government initiatives to boost infrastructure development. In fact, the industry rose at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.23% during the period 2011-2015 and will reach USD 15.6 billion in 2020.
Navin Valrani, Chief Executive Officer of Leminar Air Conditioning Company, said: “We have a very clear-cut and long-term vision for Kuwait. With a robust forecast of construction spending, we expect rising demand for increasingly efficient HVAC systems. And, we want to make sure that we are well-equipped to meet this demand.”
Pramodh Idicheria, General Manager of the company, added, “Our business partners trust Leminar’s ability to deliver results and further their global footprint. We have proved the efficiency of our distribution network with successful models in UAE and Oman. It is only a matter of time before Leminar establishes itself as Kuwait’s leading distributor catering to the MEP industry.”
The expansion comes close on the heels of a distribution agreement signed by the company with Swiss corporation Georg Fischer for the supply of its piping systems in the country. Sweden’s Alfa Haval Heat Exchangers were also recently added to Leminar’s product portfolio for Kuwaiti market.
