The CEO Zeeshan Mian Noor said that their target is the low-end market of the Middle East. “We are manufacturing the Chinese brands and there are a large number of ex-pat workers in the Gulf countries,” he said, adding the high-end consumers of Gulf countries prefer top world-class mobile brands and we should not even try to get involved in that market.”
