CityW, the pioneer in modern furniture, has achieved recognition with the “Inspirational Company” award at the 2014 BIZZ Awards. Organized by the World Confederation of Businesses (Worldcob), the prestigious BIZZ award recognizes companies and organizations for innovation, business excellence and outstanding management performance. CityW, from Al Mutlaq Holding, thus becomes the first modern furniture store ever to receive the BIZZ award in the Middle East and North Africa region. Abdullah Al Mutlaq, Ex-CEO of Al Mutlaq Holding, received the trophy during a gala ceremony held at Abu Dhabi's “Emirates Palace”. Winners of the BIZZ 2014 were chosen by the Worldcob's Evaluation Committee and a specialized research team. This research team had compiled data on organizations compatible with the award's business excellence criteria, including: managerial leadership, management systems, quality of goods and services, creativity and innovation, social responsibility and achieving results. This recognition comes after a sustained outreach program from Al Mutlaq Holding which aimed to provide a variety of options for their customers and give them a unique and distinctive shopping experience. Al Mutlaq Holding regards their products as "not just furniture, but a lifestyle,” This strategy from Al Mutlaq Holding since 1979 stimulates the expectations of every customer looking to furnish his or her home with modern and elegant items of furniture. Each CityW showroom in Riyadh, Jeddah and Al Khobar, has seven different brands from the international label “Window of City” under one roof - offering something for every customer.— SG
