New mobile app greens coupon-clipping in Kuwait

Kilshay is a 6 month-old mobile app, available for both iOS and Android devices, that provides an environmentally friendly alternative to wasteful paper advertising flyers and catalogs in Kuwait. Originally launched as a daily deals app, the app has gradually evolved since its launch to aggregate information regarding promotions, store openings, and other retail-related news.

Nader Ghazi, Kilshay’s founder, describes his app as a “location-based mobile app that helps users make smarter decisions that save them time and money.”

Ghazi is half-Kuwaiti, half-Indian, who has lived in Kuwait his entire life. He worked in retail for seven years, before going to business school in Barcelona. He launched the Kilshay iPhone app in August 2013, followed by an Android app before the end of the year. His background in retail gave him confidence to start his own business, he says. Also, “I saw similar business models succeeding in other countries,” which convinced him it would also be possible in Kuwait.
