Ali Abdulwahab Al Mutawa Commercial Co. announced the opening of the first INTERSPORT RUN store in Kuwait at Al Shaheed Park Phase 3, a facility dedicated to running equipment that caters to athletes and enthusiasts of varying abilities. The company said in its announcement that the outlet supplies a full range of running shoes, clothing and accessories while incorporating a sophisticated foot scanning device to assist customers in choosing suitable footwear. It also includes a hydration station where runners and park visitors can refill water bottles and refresh during activities. The development forms part of AAW’s ongoing expansion in sports retail across the country.
Al Shaheed Park Phase 3 offers an appropriate environment for the concept with its extended running track set amid green open spaces, details from the company statement show. The park has become a focal point for outdoor exercise in Kuwait, drawing regular participants in running and other fitness pursuits. The store placement allows direct access for those using the facilities daily, aligning product availability with the site’s established role in community sports.
AAW operates as one of Kuwait’s major commercial entities across nine diverse sectors and distributes more than 200 global brands including INTERSPORT, according to the company’s LinkedIn profile. The firm has backed multiple sports initiatives in recent years, including sponsorship of the ninth Flare Fitness Festival at Marina Crescent in 2024 that featured activities to encourage participation across age groups, a Kuwait Times report stated. AAW additionally equipped Kuwaiti athletes for the 2024 Paris Olympics through its INTERSPORT operations and has supported charity runs such as RunQ8 organized by the Fawzia Sultan Rehabilitation Institute.
INTERSPORT maintains eight other locations in Kuwait at sites that include Murouj, The Avenues, Rafa Nadal Academy, Al Tilal Complex, Assima Mall, Al Andalus Mall, Khairan Mall and SVN Resort, company records indicate. The new running-focused format follows a category specialist approach that INTERSPORT has implemented in various international markets to address specific sports disciplines more precisely. Product selections at the Shaheed Park branch target needs ranging from beginner-level requirements to those of competitive runners, the announcement noted.
The company has partnered with platforms such as talabat to enable 30-minute delivery of over 1,000 Intersport products throughout Kuwait, a collaboration announced in September 2025 that a TradingView news release described as setting a benchmark for sports retail convenience. This digital integration complements the physical store network and reflects AAW’s broader efforts to adapt retail operations to evolving consumer patterns. Further store details and operating hours remain available through INTERSPORT’s established Kuwait channels.
