Home Centre unveils its exclusive Ramadan collection and campaign
Ramadan is a season of warmth, togetherness, and celebration, yet it often comes with its fair share of dilemmas — finding an update to your living room that can lend itself to looking festive but also stay relevant post Ramadan, wondering if there's enough seating for guests, debating whether the dining table is big enough for Iftar or figuring out how many qahwa cups to buy. And that's where Home Centre steps in with the launch of 'Your Ramadan Answered' campaign and goes beyond being a home retailer to become the ultimate solution to all things Ramadan.
Each collection is uniquely designed by the in-house team, drawing inspiration from the region, curated to address every Ramadan need. From the affordable charm of the Qubba to the quiet luxury of Amirah, the bold aesthetics of Nexus, or the traditional-yet-modern appeal of Tamara, every collection provides purposeful solutions to make Ramadan preparations easier, more beautiful, and stress-free.
Arja Taaveniku, CEO, Home Centre, said: "At Home Centre, Ramadan is more than just a campaign—it's a part of who we are as a homegrown brand in the region. Ramadan holds a unique place in our hearts, as it embodies togetherness, reflection, and a deep sense of community—values that resonate deeply with what we stand for as a brand. Our commitment has always been to celebrate individuality, ensuring we meet the unique needs of every home. Through a thoughtfully curated range of styles and price points, we strive to offer something for every taste and budget. Inspired by the spirit of Ramadan, our collections aren't just about beautiful furniture or décor; it's about creating the perfect canvas for cherished memories during the holy month."
Home Centre's 'Your Ramadan Answered' collection was launched at a VIP event in the heart of Al Qudra Desert at the Hidden Café. The evening brought together the region's top influencers and interior design enthusiasts for an immersive showcase of the latest assortments. As the sun set over the golden dunes, guests experienced a curated blend of interactive activities and memorable engagements, making it an event to remember.
Siddarth Sivaprakash, head of marketing, Home Centre, said: "Our approach to Ramadan has always been to imbibe the sentiment of the season and package our offering in a way that is relevant to the pressures and challenges homemakers face, while fasting and still preparing for a period of hosting. Each collection is designed to meet every Ramadan need—whether you seek something budget-friendly, luxurious, or contemporary. We understand that planning for the holy month can sometimes feel like solving a puzzle, and our collections are expertly designed to bring it all together."
"At Home Centre, we believe preparing your home for Ramadan should feel like a celebration—not a challenge. With 'Your Ramadan Answered,' we take the guesswork out of your preparations, so you can focus on what truly matters—creating beautiful memories with your loved ones," Sivaprakash added.

It was attended by more than 500 business leaders, investors, innovators, officials, and decision-makers from both the UAE and India. Investopia – an effective platform for dialogue between the UAE and Indian business communities H.E. Bin Touq said: 'Investopia has succeeded in establishing itself as an effective platform for dialogue between the UAE and Indian business communities and supporting the growing economic partnership between the two countries in the sectors of the new and sustainable economy. Since 2021, Investopia has launched its global dialogues in five Indian cities and states: Mumbai, New Delhi, Chennai, Hyderabad and Andhra Pradesh. These events served as impactful gatherings that brought together senior leaders, economic players, investors, and entrepreneurs from both sides to capitalize on promising economic and investment opportunities in both markets. Our two nations have established diverse pathways to support a shared vision for innovative and sustainable economic models, while also promoting the development of diversified economic partnerships across both the public and private sectors.' UAE and India among fastest growing economies 'The economies of the UAE and India are among the fastest growing ones, as the non-oil GDP of the UAE economy grew by five per cent in 2024 compared to that of 2023, while the GDP of the Indian economy achieved a growth of 7.4 per cent in the first three months of 2025. This indicates the growing momentum of economic opportunities in both markets,' H.E. added. 267,121 Indian companies thriving in UAE markets H.E. continued: 'The hosting of these events reflects the growing importance of the Indian business community as a vital economic and investment partner for the UAE.

Through its events and international dialogues, the platform connects ambitious capital with transformative ideas, contributing to the development of a new economy that fosters sustainable growth and enables cross-border economic and investment partnerships.'

The corridor empowers Emirati and Indian enterprises to forge partnerships and launch viable joint ventures in African markets. The UAE's strategic location, bridging East and West and North and South, and its position as a global logistics and financial gateway, together with India's strength as a regional and global center for production and innovation, and Africa's status as a rapidly growing and opportunity-rich emerging market, make this corridor a strategic platform for expanding cross-border and intercontinental economic activity. Accelerating startup access to global markets The dialogues underscored collaborative opportunities to nurture entrepreneurial ecosystems through venture capital funding and institutional support from accelerators such as Hub71 and T-Hub. These initiatives aim to accelerate the growth of Emirati and Indian startups and support their entry into global markets. The sessions also explored avenues for cooperation in the industrial and defense sectors under the UAE-India Comprehensive Economic Partnership, with a focus on advanced industries such as artificial intelligence, space, and automotive technologies. Discussions included the potential to establish joint industrial projects that leverage the competitive advantages of both economies. Strengthening the future of food and agricultural security in both countries The sessions reviewed opportunities to build strategic supply chains that strengthen food and agricultural security in both countries, enhance joint trade and investment flows, and improve the utilization of agricultural and export potential in the UAE and Andhra Pradesh. Discussions also addressed future urban infrastructure plans in the UAE and Hyderabad, aimed at designing more resilient and sustainable cities through the adoption of cutting-edge technologies. In addition, the sessions highlighted the vital role of tourism as both a cultural and investment bridge between the two nations, particularly in medical tourism, diverse cultural experiences, and digital tourism platforms. Besides, opportunities to foster cooperation between Emirati and Indian tourism companies were explored, along with plans to develop innovative marketing strategies and investment partnerships in the tourism sector. Stimulating investment in the bioeconomy and medical innovation The sessions focused on encouraging the UAE and Indian business communities to expand investments in the emerging bioeconomy – one of the fastest-growing and most impactful sectors for the future of sustainable development. Discussions also emphasized the importance of long-term investment in research and industrial infrastructure related to medical sciences, biotechnology, clinical innovation, and the pharmaceutical industry. These efforts aim to strengthen bilateral cooperation, enhance the competitiveness of healthcare systems in both countries, and support their transition toward smarter, technology-driven models that are efficient, future-ready, and responsive to population needs. The Investopia Global dialogues in Andhra Pradesh witnessed the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Investopia and the Andhra Pradesh Economic Development Board (APEDB), to enhance cooperation and support the participation of a high-level delegation from the state in the fifth edition of Investopia's flagship summit, scheduled to be held in April next year in Abu Dhabi.
