I wouldn't exactly consider this to be "blatant advertising". I have to the best of my ability tried to list facts as to who they are, and what businesses they take part in. The article is not yet complete. Of course, assistance in doing so would be muchly appreciated.

Hello, I apologize for making edits directly to the
Alghanim Industries page. Unfortunately, I misunderstood the editing process. I have updated my user page to clearly state my corporate association and my compliance with
Wikipedia policies. I will undo all previous edits and instead suggest the changes here on the talk page to be reviewed by Wiki editors. Thank you for your patience and understanding. I look forward to further collaboration with the Wiki community.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. A reviewer felt that this edit would not improve the article. |
Hello, I would like to request a rewrite of the introduction paragraph. My suggestion would change it so it would read as follows:
"Alghanim Industries is one of the largest privately owned conglomerates in the Arabian Gulf region. Based in Kuwait, the company today oversees more than 30 businesses in 40 countries. Principal businesses include automotives, consumer electronics, retail, consumables and industrial materials. In 2009, CEO Omar Kutayba Alghanim told Reuters that the company’s annual revenues were $2.5 billion. Since then, Alghanim Industries has not commented publicly on its financial performance.
The firm has established strongholds in the Middle East, India and Turkey, dealing with over 300 global brands and agencies."
1. I reworked the first 2 sentences to make them more concise. Source can be found on company's corporate profile http://www.alghanim.com/Corpweb/CorporateProfile/index.htm.
2. I removed the sentence about loan disbursement as it is incorrect and is not sourced.
3. I reworded the sentence about the company's revenue and here is a link with the original announcement from Reuters http://www.reuters.com/article/us-wef-alghanim-acquisitions-idUSTRE54F1ZK20090516.
4. I removed the expansion sentence as there is no citation.
Please let me know if any clarification is needed. Adam at Alghanim Industries ( talk) 11:13, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
