Gulf Warehousing Company (GWC), one of the fastest-growing logistics businesses in the MENA region, has successfully concluded a Health and Safety awareness campaign for tenants of Al Wukair Logistics Park.

This initiative underscores GWC's commitment to supporting and accelerating the growth of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs). The week-long event highlighted the latest health and safety solutions and global standards, showcasing strategies to prevent occupational hazards and ensure a safe environment for all employees and contractors.

Ranjeev Menon, Group CEO of GWC, stated: “We augment our initiatives to boost the MSMEs sector in line with Qatar's Third National Development Strategy and National Vision 2030, which aim at developing a diversified economy and supporting Qatar's transformation into a pivotal global logistics hub.

“GWC is dedicated to empowering MSMEs growth by implementing global best practices and solutions. As part of its commitment to safety in all aspects of its operations, GWC also has a Safety Observation Reporting (SOR) System —a streamlining process that encourages all employees to report workplace observations they encounter on a day-to-day basis to help identify and mitigate occupational hazards and unsafe conditions in the workplace. Thus, transferring GWC's expertise to MSMEs represents a cornerstone of its support strategy, fostering growth and innovation within the sector.”

Last June, GWC launched the Al Wukair Logistics Park Directory, a platform designed to boost the growth of MSMEs and enhance partnerships within the local market. This initiative empowers businesses to succeed and achieve their goals by offering comprehensive support.
