The Labour Fund (Tamkeen) announced its support for the expansion project of AlSater Markets and dozens of employment opportunities for Bahrainis, in addition to career development opportunities for 43 of its Bahraini employees.

This was facilitated through Tamkeen’s National Employment Programme and Wage Increment Programme with the purpose of empowering Al Sater Markets with the human capital needed through their expansion project in the Kingdom.

It’s worth mentioning that Al Sater Market’s Bahrainization rate stands at around 45% in their current branches as of this year.

Kahlid AlBayat, Chief Growth Officer at the Labour Fund (Tamkeen), highlighted Tamkeen’s commitment to supporting expansion and growth plans of local enterprises due to their direct impact on the national economy.

He stated: “We commend the efforts of Bahraini enterprises to expand their operations and attract more specialized national talent by leveraging Tamkeen’s various support programs to support their growth plans and achieve further success.”

Mr. Hussain Mohammed Ali, CEO of Al-Sater Markets said: “The support will enable us to develop the skills of Bahraini employees currently employed in our branches by providing them with necessary training and career development opportunities and benefiting from Tamkeen’s Wage Increment Programme.”
