Saudi market entry
With your company I set the plan for entering the Saudi market: who you sell to, on which channels, with what offer, and on what budget for the first months.
Who this is for
- A company or store in Jordan or the region that wants to sell in Saudi Arabia.
- You advertised in Saudi Arabia with the messages that work in your home market and it did not work.
- You are looking for distributors or partners in the Kingdom.
What it covers
Reading the market
Competitors, prices, and what the Saudi buyer expects in your category.
Channels and platforms
Which ad platforms, marketplaces and apps suit the product. Snapchat, TikTok and X carry a weight in Saudi Arabia that differs from other markets.
Offer and messaging
Adapting the offer, dialect and message rather than translating them.
Operations
Shipping, payment and customer service as the market expects.
The first months
A budget, metrics and clear review points.
What you receive and when
A written entry plan with budget and metrics, and a presentation to management. I can oversee implementation as later work. The time depends on the category and the scale of ambition.
What I need from you
Product, price and margin data, and anything you have already tried in Saudi Arabia.
From my record in this kind of work
- 2014
The year I began working on the Saudi market at MarkaVIP, followed by Myshopping and later Argan Package.
- 15
New wholesale customers at Argan Package in Saudi Arabia, with exclusive distribution in the Eastern Province and Jeddah.
The figures are from my campaign records and have not been audited by a third party. One company's results do not guarantee the same for another.
Common questions
Do you handle commercial registration and licences?
No. That is legal and accounting work for specialists. My work is marketing, sales and channels.
Do you travel to Saudi Arabia?
Yes, I travel to Saudi Arabia for on-site training.
