Mumzworld

Mumzworld was founded in 2011 by a team of caring but busy, entrepreneurial parents who felt something was missing from the market. We weren’t satisfied with the product range or information we found at crowded malls and scattered online stores. We envisioned giving families in the Middle East, one place to search, compare, and buy from a wide range of leading local and global brands, all from the comfort of their homes and offices. Above all, we wanted to provide parents with all the information and reviews they need to make the best decisions about gear for their newborn, educational toys for their little whizz kids, books for their preschooler or wardrobes for their pre-teen. After celebrating our 5 year birthday last year as the leading online retailer in the Middle East, this mission still holds true.
