The Ministry of Industry and Commerce launched several initiatives for the back-to-school season to support citizens and residents by ensuring quality products at fair prices.

The Consumer Protection Directorate introduced the “Consumer’s Friend” initiative, inviting retailers to offer discounts on school-related goods such as stationery, uniforms, electronics, furniture, food items, and more. The program runs until November 2025.

The Ministry also announced a wide inspection plan to monitor product quality, price fairness, and availability, ensuring diverse options for families.

The Ministry emphasized that the back-to-school season is an opportunity to strengthen public–private partnerships, highlighting the role of Bahraini families and retailers in making the season easier and more promising for students.
