Company Description
At Gray Mackenzie Retail Lebanon (GMRL), we’ve been shaping the retail landscape since our inception in 1996. As a pioneer in the ownership and operation of supermarkets and hypermarkets, we’re driven by one core mission: to “Live Life Generously.”
From the day we reintroduced Spinneys to Lebanon, we’ve continued to innovate and expand. Whether it’s being generous with quality through Spinneys, generous with quantity at Happy Discount Store, or generous with time at Grab’n Go, every division we operate focuses on enriching the lives of our customers.
Our retail portfolio has grown, we expanded further in 2019 with Mackenzie Distribution, F&B, and Production, diversifying our reach and ensuring a seamless, top-quality shopping experience across Lebanon. In recent years, Monoprix and NokNok have joined the GMRL umbrella, bringing even more options to our customers. Our journey doesn’t stop there. With our eye on future growth, we are preparing to expand across the region.
