Back in the 1980s the Ansar Group ventured into the world of retail business with a single wholesale and retail outlet in Doha called The New World Company. Today our group has moved through greater stages of growth from its inception to expansion with massive malls and galleries that have been attracting a steadily rising number of visitors over the years.
