Last week I was invited to birthday
celebration in Al Amerat. One of my friends bring to me a date with chocolate
named Meshan and said “ just taste it”
because she know that I am one who doesn’t trust in any product if it is not a
familiar brand for personal reasons. I didn’t want to embarrass her and I taste
it. I never forgot the taste; I didn’t believe that it was an Omani product
because it was amazing. When I came back home, I just searched about it and I
found that Meshan Dates is a project established in September 2011 by Wafa,
Shatha, Ahed and Waad Al Jabri. This project aims to present Omani Dates mixed
with chocolate and high quality of Arabic and European flavors in a modern
ways.
The four
sisters started working in a room in their house in Al Amerat. Then, they
expanded to a workshop with a capital of 500 OMR. Not to mention, Meshan
provides Omani Dates as a gift for different occasions such as birthdays,
weddings, meetings and official gifts with appropriate and low prices for all
buyers.
Meshan
distributes its products for both Omanis and foreigners from 6-65 ages. One Year passed, Meshan expanded to deal with
public and private institutions. Meshan had the honour to provide 70 Kilos of
Omani Dates for the Diwan Royal Court in a cultural event in Paris. Also, they
had participated in the Sultan Qaboos University in the
Silver Jubilee of the University.
They continue to promote their
products by using enormous approaches of advertisements on social media by
having page on instagram and recently they started to work on twitter and
facebook.
Basically,
the government of Oman supports Meshan to continue its productions. Many offers
were provided to improve Meshan either offering new environments for Meshan or
sending Meshan's owners abroad to get new experiences or attending courses in
producing chocolates. Not to forget, producing dates with a mixture of
traditions and modernity helped Meshan to success as dates are symbol of Oman's
culture and all Omanis provide dates in every special event.
And I have
delivered some dates with different flavors for my family gathering for next
weekend. Don’t miss the chance and start to deliver :)
