Time for QDC 2

theexiledsaint's picture

QDC needs to open a second shop in Qatar probably in west bay. Commercially it's a no brainer and will support the development of the country.

Also supermarkets should be allowed to open non-Muslim sections so that all residents of Qatar can be free to make choices for themselves.

Well, it is near Al Jazeera Academy, Qatar Scientific Club and I think (not sure) there is an Arabic/Indian school near there. Could be wrong.

It may have been out in the sticks years ago but not any more.

We are not asking you to go there by the way, however if a higher body than you has said it is ok for some people to buy from there- who are you to say we should not?

cabbage said WK ...

Course it does as there are more drinkers here than non-drinkers.

And if they want to retain our services; AND they do, they cater for the masses.

Simple as that.

We are not asking for much; they want us here for what we provide so in turn they kindly allow us to have what we have back home :-)

Win- win situation to me.

By the way - most local people do not have a problem with this.

The thirsty guys are at the industrial area and they make do by drinking cologne, etc and you people are suggesting the next QDC to be opened at West bay and the third one at the Pearl. Why not open some at the Industrial area and see business booming for QDC and its backers and it would not require a lot of research to tell you that its a win win situation

QDC is pretty close to the industrial area. Most of the workers in industrial area buy alcohol from drivers who sell it illegally so they get free home delivery anyway.
