Polaris - Our Story
Here's how it all started
FEBRUARY 10,2016
Polaris POS set foot in Dubai in 2016, We started with not much more than a great idea, shoestring budget and a whole lot of dedication and determination.
WHY DUBAI
It is the news that UAE will introduce VAT which is something new
for the citizens and businesses that drives us to take the leap
Dubai is a modern city but the adaptation of SME's into technology
is relatively low.
WE STARTED SMALL
One Head, A thousand Hats
In all started in a 400 sq.ft space in a business center. Our founder Ali Asghar started to work on SEO of our website, adding powerful functions in our software spending some time cold-calling Retail shops he found on google or visiting some offices renting in the business center.
AUGUST 2014
When the phone starts ringing
Mr. Ali as the usual routine, checks the analytics of the website and see if there's any changes with the website traffic when phone rings for the very first time. It was the first lead we received and fortunately we closed after series of meetings. Mr. Ali build a rapport with the supermarket owner
Recently they've opened their 10th store and gladly we're still their preferred partner for their POS requirements. Thank you Kefayat Group!
FAST FORWARD 2017
Taking the big leap
with an Investors Help
Polaris POS though a new player in the market have gain substantial attention from Investors. But it was an unusual scenario how Mr. Ali meet our Venture Capitalist
NO INVESTMENT PITCH; A PARTNERSHIP BUILT WITH TRUST
As business grows and make profits it will also starts to accumulate cost and Polaris needs a capital injection in order keep going and and that's the time a young man with the same grit and principle as our founder came into picture, Mr. Faris Al Azzani, a gold factory owner.
THE PRESENT, OUR FUTURE
Bigger. Better. Bolder.
With Mr. Faris's connection and determination of our founder the team grew from 1 to 10 amazing minds who shares the same passion and belief system which won't go away easliy when we encounter bumps of a start up company.
