This brand store reflects the strong partnership between the two entities and underlines Fifty One East’s reputation as the partner of choice for international electronics brands. It also demonstrates Hisense’s steady growth in the region and the Qatari market as it strengthens its position as one of the leading brands in the consumer technology sector.
Hisense’s brand store, the first in Qatar, provides customers with a home-like experience as it showcases its entire product line-up – top-of-the-range TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, dishwashers, microwaves, smartphones as well as its award-winning smart consumer technology ‘Laser TV’, a 100-inch TV screen that brings cinema to your living room.
Bader Al-Darwish, Chairman and Managing Director of Fifty One East, said: “We are honoured to host the first and exclusive Hisense store in Qatar at Lagoona Mall, the home of some of the world’s most desired brands.
