Small business via social media !


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 :)
