Circle primarily focuses on providing a user-friendly grocery delivery service within Kuwait, designed to cater to the needs of busy consumers and families seeking convenience in their shopping experiences. The core offering is its mobile application, which connects consumers to local grocery stores and retailers, allowing them to browse and purchase a wide range of grocery items including fresh produce and household essentials. The target customer base includes urban dwellers, working professionals, and families who prioritize time-saving solutions for grocery needs, with access to thousands of products from various local merchants. Circle generates revenue through a transactional model characterized by direct-to-consumer sales facilitated by its grocery delivery app.


Customers place orders through the app, and the company partners with local retailers to fulfill these orders, typically charging a delivery fee. The revenue structure may include various pricing plans based on the nature of the grocery items, emphasizing partnerships with retailers to enhance customer reach, while delivering groceries directly to customers' doorsteps. Circle intends to leverage the USD 6 million raised in Series A funding to enhance its grocery delivery app and expand its market reach. The company plans to introduce new features within the app to improve user experience and is exploring opportunities for expansion into neighboring Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) markets by 2024.


This strategic growth is aimed at increasing its customer base and improving operational efficiencies.
