A new supermarket opened up recently called “The Approved Market”. It’s a small supermarket where all the items they sell are considered healthy hence their tag line “Guilt Free Grocery Shopping”. I passed by earlier today to check it out and I think the place has potential since for the most part they had a bunch of products and brands I hadn’t seen in other local supermarkets. But, on the other hand, the range of products isn’t that vast with the majority of the items consisting of chips or jar food items like jams, honey, butters, etc. They of course did have other items like healthy breads, quinoa based products (like pasta and risotto), salad dressing and even alkaline water, but those items were few and far between.
The place looks great and is definitely worth passing by and checking it out. They’re located in Sanabil Tower in Sharq and are open daily from 10AM to 10PM. Here is their location on [Google Maps]

This business is doomed to fail unless they market to their demographic area correctly and educate their customers by placing kiosks in the store to push their product lines offering ready-made lunchtime takeaway using the products they sell and offering an area for people to sit with some ambience to enjoy what they bought. They could offer a delivery service to the various offices in the area, otherwise these types of product lines will just expire on the shelves in an uneducated market like Kuwait. There are many office buildings in that area and they could create a healthy option for this demographic.
I like ur suggestions, I hope they take them in mind.
I wish them the best of luck, I like businesses that are built up to change the society along with getting profit
Delivery!! Good thinking !
The market isn’t officially open yet since we’re still in our soft opening phase. We will be providing delivery service all over Kuwait and ready-made meals very soon.
I passed by last week to check them out, they have amazing products and protein everything from bars to protein ice-cream. the thing that i really don’t like about this place is the price tags on their products, i ended up paying 5 KWD for a bag of chips and a small box of gluten free Oreos.
Thanks for passing by. Those are the recommended prices from our suppliers. Our prices are the same [if not cheaper]than all supermarkets and co-ops.
I wish you all the best bro,
