Kansai Paint, a global leader in the paint and coatings industry, launched its store franchise program for the UAE in a bid to enhance its presence and reach among consumers.

To showcase the store offering and product portfolio, Kansai has built a replica of its store located in Satwa, Dubai at its stand in Hall 8 at The Big 5. The store replica outlines the entire look, feel and concept of the Kansai store while highlighting the quality and superior technology of Kansai’s product range. It also highlights the various franchise benefits of partnering with Kansai Paint, Japans’s leading coatings solutions provider with a strong growth story of nearly 100 years.
