Problem
Businesses often face fragmented procurement processes, limited negotiating power, and lack of reliable market data, leading to higher costs and inefficient purchasing across multiple categories.
Solution
Kima provides a procurement network that aggregates the buying power of its members—over AED 200 M—to negotiate contracts with more than 75 vetted suppliers covering 5,600+ products.

The platform delivers cost savings of 20%+ on category spend and supplies quarterly market intelligence and benchmarking to help members make informed buying decisions. By standardizing terms, pricing, and service levels, Kima reduces the administrative burden of supplier management while maintaining quality and compliance.
