The team also shared updates on networks' improvements together with trends on Voice and Data. Additionally, Vodafone discussed with the resellers the latest barcoding technology for Recharge Cards, which are now available with a QR Code, as a first in the market.

Mohammed Al Yami, Director of External Affairs at Vodafone Qatar, said: "Our partners are keys to our success and therefore we place very high importance on the feedback and insights we glean out of these meetings in order to continuously enhance our performance. These meetings also aim at engaging and conversing directly with shop owners and managers in order to collect first-hand input which forms the basis for developing bespoke services and solutions to each area. It also serves as a great platform to offers and propositions and, of equal importance, rewards and recognises these retailers for their efforts and commitment to support Vodafone."
