As part of an ongoing commitment to inspire Kuwaitis to pursue careers in retail, Ali Abdulwahab Al Mutawa Commercial Co. (AAW) Furniture Department hosted an in-store retail camp for 40 students between the age of eight and fourteen in collaboration with Energy Camp Kuwait (ECK).

ECK is an educational children’s volunteer camp that aims to broaden the career horizons for children and influence their education and career goals.

The children, who were between the ages of eight and fourteen, were hosted at AAW’s furniture showroom in Al-Dajeej and introduced to typical work-day activities of a retail store. Activities included learning to work safely with tools, designing and organizing eye-catching displays, how to offer customer service, and a look into how pricing items in-store are done. The children also learned about the workmanship behind AAW’s carpets department, from the development of the carpets to how they are safely stored.

Founded by Haya Al-Shatti and Fatima Al-Mutawa, Energy Camp Kuwait aims to educate, create job awareness, and instill responsibility into the youth of Kuwait through various tasks, challenges and functions. Camp activities include acting classes, storytelling, cooking, recycling, sports, art, islamic studies, thinking skills, and experience in future job opportunities.
