Main Strengths and Competitive Advantages of Rayan

Item

Details

Excellence of Technology Deployed

Rayan has advanced technologies that are available in a very limited way at most of local and regional factories. This helped the company manufacture its products with high production capacity, strict quality control, and automation of manufacturing and production process. Therefore, Rayan can reduce the number of labor force required from end-to-end without human intervention.

Production Capacity

Rayan has a large production capacity in advanced printing using European techniques. It seeks to boost this production capacity in the coming years.

Extensive Experience of Managerial Team

Since its establishment, Rayan’s management team has local and international expertise, which facilitates deep understanding of the industry, and supports the company’s interest in terms of local and regional excellence.

Strategic Relationships with Clients

Rayan has maintained its relationships with clients for long. It has manufactured products for major supermarkets, which are well-known locally and internationally (packaging and plastics products in the names of such clients),  in the field of foods (packaging for used bags), andin the field of diapers and sanitary napkins (specialized plastic products), etc.

Exporting to Neighboring and Regional Countries

Rayan was able to have a customer base in many countries across the GCC and MENA regions, including the UAE, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, Algeria and Tunisia. This was backed by the high quality of the company’s products as well as pre- and after-sale services.

Relatively Low Production Cost

Rayan has gained the trust of suppliers over the years. Accordingly, it obtained competitive prices for the required raw products. Thus, the overall cost of production granted Rayan another advantage in outperforming local and foreign competitors.

 

CEO and Managing Director, Sami Joudeh, earlier said that Rayan reported a net profit of SAR 14.5 million in the first half of 2022. The company’s revenues are expected to surpass SAR 220 million in 2022, and near SAR 255 million in 2023.

 

Last October, the Capital Market Authority (CMA) approved Rayan’s application to offer two million shares, or 20% of its share capital, on Nomu-Parallel Market. Aldukheil Financial Group, the financial advisor, also announced that Rayan’s offering will close tomorrow, Nov. 24.
