Sprii.com has been selected as one of the finalists in the annual Gulf Capital SME Awards, a recognition programme honouring the success, innovation and growth of entrepreneurs, business leaders and small businesses in the UAE.
Out of thousands of entries, Sprii.com was selected by an esteemed panel of judges in the B2C Small Business of the Year category.

Sprii is a technology platform providing a shopping experience for Mums across the Middle East. With the largest selection of authentic products and brands in its chosen verticals, Sprii is the leading trusted platform for mums to shop all their needs across a variety of categories for themselves, their little ones and their homes.

The business operates a drop-ship model, holding no stock but rather sourcing items directly from brands, retailers and distributors and partnering with logistics providers for delivery. This model, combined with highly automated processes and market-leading technology, primes the business for rapid growth. “Every year we are astounded at the quality of the entries we receive, which makes it more difficult to shortlist and then pick winners – this is a testament to the vibrancy of the SME sector in the UAE and that it continues to be a core driver for growth in this country,” commented John Emmerson, Director, SME Awards, MEED, the leading business intelligence provider in the Middle East.

Organised by MEED, the prestigious awards programme is supported by endorsing partners Dubai SME and the Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development; as well as Gulf Capital and Virtuzone as sponsors.

The full list of finalists is available online at www.meedsmeawards.com. The shortlisted SMEs will go through another round of evaluation by the judging panel after which the final set of winners will be announced on 26 September 2018 at Ritz Carlton DIFC, Dubai.
