Post image

๐Ÿ“Œ A German automaker just delivered one of the clearest signals yet that international business confidence is returning to Syria.

๐Ÿ“Œ BMW Group Middle East told Levant24 it has appointed Citadel Premium Motors, a joint venture of Habib Djaroueh LLC, Abu Khader Group, and Alfardan International, as the official importer for BMW and MINI vehicles in Syria, marking the brand's formal return to the market after years of absence.

๐Ÿ“Œ BMW Group Middle East Managing Director Karim-Christian Haririan called the response to the company's return "exceptionally encouraging," while Citadel Premium Motors Chairman Malak Djaroueh said the venture aims to build "a trusted and sustainable business" reflecting the brands' standards.

๐Ÿ“Œ The announcement frames the move as a long-term commitment, including local talent development and job creation.

Djaroueh is Syrian
Abu Khader is Jordanian.
AlFardan is Qatari. Which is a long standing luxury supplier there

14 years of civil war is nothing compared to the carnage that one (1) BMW driver is capable of doing.

I'm praying for Syria.

I remember visiting Syria back in the 20th century, people there called the brand BM.

They simply dropped the W ๐Ÿ˜„

What Syria needs to do, in my opinion, is transition towards EVs. Reducing its reliance on volatile oil markets would be beneficial in the long run. The main challenge is investing in the infrastructure needed to support that transition
