It is a great privilege to be honoured by Retail ME and winning the coveted Retail ME ICONS award is an acknowledgement of our pioneering leadership in the business of retail in MENA. As I understand that stringent guidelines were followed by Retail ME, this recognition will enable me and my team to add more responsibility to what we do. This will motivate us to provide enhanced value to our customers in a socially responsible manner. I wish to thank Retail ME for providing me with this honour, which is also a reflection of the support I get from my beloved wife Vandana Datar, my dear sons Hrishikesh and Rohit and also my dedicated team of employees.”
