Three types of food baskets, ranging from Dh99 to Dh399, will also be made available for purchase for donation. Distribution of donated baskets will be handled in collaboration with Sharjah Charity.

“Responding to concerns raised by customers about potential price hikes during the holy month, the Society reassured the public of its dedication to offering products at affordable rates,” said Al Junaid.
The retailer is also looking at introducing drive-through shopping options to alleviate traffic congestion and provide greater convenience to customers.
