Redwave assures enough stock at cheap rates for Ramadan

Redwave has assured that enough stocks will be available at cheap prices during the upcoming fasting month of Ramadan.

Redwave Group's Head of Operations Ali Shaheem (Ayyu) said some of the items sold by Redwave will be cheaper than the previous Ramadan.

While Redwave operates several retail outlets in Male' and Hulhumale', Ali Shaheem assured that the prices of goods will not be increased during Ramadan.

"Especially onions, garlic, eggs, oil, all sauces, butter and cheese will be available at affordable prices. Seedless dates will also be available for the month of Ramadan," Ali Shaheem said.

Noting that the congestion in Male' makes it difficult to deliver daily, Ali Shaheem said there is still time to buy household items for Ramadan.

He said that Redwave begins the annual Ramadan sale several days before the fasting month to allow customers to buy in advance.

Redwave has 12 stores in Male' and two in Hulhumale'.
