Qatar Development Bank has announced the launch of a comprehensive package of financing and advisory programs in cooperation with the Ministry of Municipality, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, and the Ministry of Public Health, and in coordination with the Food Security Policy Follow-up Committee, to support companies and factories in the food, healthcare, and related industries.

This initiative comes in response to private sector needs amid ongoing regional developments. It includes financing solutions for priority supply chains by providing partial guarantees to wholesale and retail companies, enabling them to access funding from commercial banks.

The bank also offers financing for raw material inventory, helping manufacturers strengthen their stock levels and prepare for potential supply chain disruptions.

Additionally, QDB has launched a logistics support program for imports aimed at mitigating rising shipping and transportation costs. The program provides financial support, connects businesses with reliable suppliers and logistics partners, organizes specialized workshops, and offers up-to-date market insights.

On the advisory side, the bank delivers specialized services such as emergency planning, business continuity development, and operational and supply chain risk assessments to enhance companies’ preparedness.

QDB noted that eligible companies and factories will be contacted directly in coordination with relevant الجهات، in line with the priorities of the targeted sectors.
