Egyptian furniture e-commerce marketplace expands to Saudi Arabia following recent funding

0
By Tom Jackson on July 23, 2024 News, North Africa

Kemitt, Egypt’s leading e-commerce marketplace for furniture and home accessories, has expanded into the Saudi Arabian market following a recent undisclosed funding round.

Founded in 2017, Kemitt is a marketplace that connects product and furniture designers with consumers, handling the manufacturing, overheads, and last-mile logistics. The online platform allows customers to access over 100,000 SKUs, with an on-demand manufacturing option and 7-12 day delivery services to their doorstep.

The startup’s recent funding round, although undisclosed, provides the necessary capital to support Kemitt’s ambitious growth plans. The investment will be allocated towards technological enhancements of its platform, expanding the range of available products, establishing local partnerships, and its expansion into Saudi Arabia.

“We are incredibly excited to bring Kemitt to Saudi Arabia,” said Mahmoud Fouad, co-founder and CEO of Kemitt. “This expansion is a testament to our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. The recent funding will enable us to scale our operations, enhance our technology, and offer our unique shopping experience to Saudi consumers. Our mission is to establish Kemitt as the go-to destination for furniture shopping in the region.” 

To mark the expansion, Kemitt has launched a dedicated website for Saudi Arabia, which now has over 25,000 SKUs.
