Quivo and GWC Set New Standards for E-Commerce Fulfillment in the Gulf Region

The Gulf region is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce markets in the world. With the new partnership between Quivo and GWC, we’re opening up fresh opportunities for growth, expansion, and seamless market entry for businesses in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia. Together we’re combining our strengths to build innovative fulfillment solutions tailored to the needs of both international and regional online retailers.

A Strong Fulfillment Partnership for the Gulf

The strategic alliance between Quivo and GWC marks a major milestone for e-commerce in the Gulf region. With GWC, Qatar’s leading logistics company with over 4,000 employees and 20 locations, taking a minority stake of € 5.2 million, Quivo is now building a modern fulfillment infrastructure in the Middle East alongside a dominant local player. The first large-scale warehouse in Qatar is already equipped with our proprietary fulfillment system, the Quivo Connector. This marks the launch of additional state-of-the-art logistics hubs in Dubai and Saudi Arabia, creating direct access to some of the world’s most dynamic growth markets.

International e-commerce brands that previously faced major hurdles to entering these markets now have a true turnkey solution for launching in the GCC countries. At the same time, businesses in the Gulf region gain enormous value from an established global network. With six fully owned fulfillment sites across Europe, the UK, and the US, Quivo connects the Gulf with the world’s most important e-commerce markets, delivering a cutting-edge platform for local companies looking to scale internationally.

High-Growth Markets with Huge Potential

The Gulf states are rapidly becoming some of the most exciting e-commerce markets in the world. According to studies, online retail revenue in the GCC region is expected to reach around € 45 billion by 2029, which is nearly double the 2024 figure. Markets like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar are seeing above-average growth. With near-universal internet access and a young, tech-savvy population, these countries are gaining serious momentum.

This economic dynamism is making the region increasingly attractive to both local players and global brands. With digital shopping on the rise and widespread adoption of new technologies, both partners are positioned to benefit from this collaboration. Quivo gains access to a region full of new opportunities and can continue innovating in a booming environment. Meanwhile, GWC is strategically expanding its service portfolio by entering the high-potential fulfillment segment and gaining better access to new markets. That means not only both companies benefit, but so do their customers who can now scale seamlessly on a global level.

This is what makes the partnership a true win-win and a catalyst for growth, innovation, and market access in both directions. International brands unlock new revenue streams and reach, while the Gulf region benefits from cutting-edge technology, professional fulfillment services, and the ability to elevate local businesses to the global stage.
