Best Omani product ever has to be Raha sleeping mattresses. They are world class, affordable, available in a huge range, and incredibly successful. They are used by hotels all over the world. I read somewhere that 60% of the hotelrooms in Dubai have Raha mattresses.

Second would be Nabil Glucose biscuits :)

"the things that you consider OUTstanding and even can reach to the level of a high international quality item?"
Well by all means that must be Amouage - The most valuable perfume in the world! :)
"Amouage is ultra luxury,
its roots in modern Arabian opulence
and splendour, its quality enjoyed
around the world as the height of wealth,
success and sensual sophistication"

Amouage is a national treasure of Oman, a fragrance made in the ancient art of Arabian perfumery. Its history and heritage run rich and deep – one of the unique features of this luxury perfume.

For more info on this 'national treasure' the Amouage (http://www.amouage.com/englishweb/amouage/homepage.htm) site is the one and only stop. :)

How about that natural resources which Oman produces in abundance? Oil, gas, dates, goats and 7asad?

Well after many years of use they will get damaged, espacially if no maintenance done to them. Also I think it depends on the quality of water used if it's salty or not.

My order will be:

- chips Oman….it can rule everywhere..

- Amouge … cus it need more cash ..it only can rule at a a small group prestige level..

- Omani Marble-- ‘ I know they export it to italy and import it back by stamping ‘ Made in Italy’ and then ppl will buy it at a higher cost… :Shock: .what a shame .. Well, its a business..

- Omani cables..

- Raha mattress … once u have them there is no excuse not to sleep well…

- Palace..tissue…. ‘Cry I’m here for u’..lol.

- Hotax.. agree wit Ice tea ..its one of the best heaters and we use it for both summer and winter…..’ i’m for u all seasons..’


-Omani 7asad…. ‘ one eye is enough to break ur leg’….

*FaLLiNG STaR*
28-06-05, 05:47 PM
well i just saw and realized today that the actual name for the heaters is "Hotex" NOT "Hotax" :rolleyes:.... well they are great really...

sallam,


*I think every one forgot one of the biggest sell in the past 12 years was the Car Battery [Antara].

It was made in Oman and exported abroad by the co-orportation of a Japanies Company, if i am not mistaken!?


*As well as, 4 years ago a big fish company started in Oman with 2-3 partnerships, some are omani!

That fish company, runs a deal with some fishermen to fish Tuna fish and sent to the factory to be cleanind and cooked and canned and then export it abroad!

I cant recall the name of the company but i recall one of the others called Oman Fish!

* Plastic Oman, is one of the biggest seller as well, and they produce a big number of plastic products and they are mainly used by the locals as well as sold around the world.

*Not to forget another Plastic bags factory, they prodcue plastic bags and export it abroad, and sold locally as well,[i have been there many times, as it happens to know the owner of this place]

*Oman Stationary, as now it is more sold than the imported ones, starting with pens, pencils, rubbers,sharpners, note books and lots of others

Right and that is why there is no enough fish in the market which explains why the fish is expansive during the year. One killo of tuna 'Gaither' costs 1.6 rials last time I checked it.

HALA SHAYYYY,

well u r right......

and it is not only the price of Tuna, as well as Squid, octopus, Prawns and lobsters and others.....

As in exprting abroad means less sold locally and means more expancive interiorly!
