WHEELS OF ARABIA (WOA) is riding high after the acquisition of the Bahrain-based Harley-Davidson dealership.
The inclusion of the marque under the umbrella of Khalid Almoayed and Sons cements its position as a ‘premier dealer of two-wheeler brands in the region’, the company says.
“Owning and operating a Harley-Davidson dealership is a unique business opportunity, which we are pleased to take up,” said Abdulrahman Almoayed, director Wheels Of Arabia.
“Our existing expertise in two-wheelers definitely gives us the edge in handling this brand. We’re very excited to have Harley-Davidson on board with us and we look forward to developing its presence in the region.’’
WOA, he says, was founded based on a vision of ‘providing customers with the experience of a lifetime on two wheels’. Its products range from motorcycles, scooters, accessories, parts, safety gear, merchandise and service offerings, aimed at providing customers with a one-stop-shop.
WOA currently represents some of the leading global brands including Ducati, Aprilia, Vespa, Moto Guzzi, Piaggio, MV Agusta and Gilera, among others, and operates in Bahrain and the UAE.
