Gray Mackenzie Retail Lebanon (GMRL) has acquired NokNok, an online grocery platform known for fast delivery. Signed in early 2024, the deal aligns with GMRL’s strategy to expand its e-commerce reach and digital services. Integrating NokNok allows GMRL to enhance its digital footprint and provide innovative, practical solutions to Lebanese consumers. Operating under GMRL since last month, NokNok will undergo a full app revamp to introduce new features and high-quality offerings.
"This acquisition supports our vision to lead Lebanon's retail sector through digital transformation," said Hassan, Chairman of Gray Mackenzie Group.

As part of the activities of the 10th edition of the annual Flower Festival held annually to support local farmers and encourage sustainable farming, and in co-occurrence with the month dedicated to raising awareness about autism, Spinneys organized an event titled "Cultivate your senses" in collaboration with the Lebanese Autism Society.
Spinneys chose the senses for this purpose this year to highlight their importance in shaping renewal and growth in human life, especially for individuals with autism, as they face sensory challenges that require precise techniques. These techniques are based on specific activities that teach them how to deal with life circumstances by stimulating their five senses, helping them adapt better to their surroundings and increasing brain activity and concentration.

On the occasion of the earth day, we celebrated our Green Festival at Spinneys Jbeil in collaboration with 10NGOs and schools from the area. We strongly believe that educating the younger generation about eco friendly practices can ensure a successful transition to a greener and more sustainable environment. The ‘Green Festival’ is just one of the many green initiatives that Spinneys leads, underscoring their commitment to environmental responsibility and community engagement. From educational workshops to hands-on activities, Spinneys consistently demonstrates its dedication to fostering a greener and more sustainable future for Lebanon.
