Kuwait City – Zain Group, the leading mobile telecom innovator in eight markets across the Middle East and Africa, announces that its Zain Drone subsidiary has received ISO 9001:2015 Certification with respect to its Quality Management System (QMS). This significant achievement makes Zain Drone the first drone services provider in the region to receive the internationally recognized accreditation.
