SQUATWOLF Opens Its Flagship Store in Kuwait
References: tradingview
The performance-driven apparel brand SQUATWOLF has opened its first flagship store in Kuwait at The Avenues. The company noted it broke its biggest sales record on opening Friday and then broke it again on Saturday. This success follows a year-long presence in the market through a partnership with Ali Abdulwahab Al Mutawa Commercial Company, a strong e-commerce operation, and a deeply engaged local community that had already claimed the brand as its own long before the physical store existed.
SQUATWOLF is a Dubai-born brand that grew organically. Its success may be attributed to its emphasis on answering the needs of the fitness community in the region. It has designed performance wear specifically for the climate, culture, and needs of athletes in the Middle East.
The Avenues is Kuwait's most iconic retail destination with over 1100 stores.
