Abdullah Abdulghani & Bros Co (AAB) has joined hands with Japanese global mobility service provider Kinto.

"Everyone should have the freedom to move. With cities more congested and lives more connected, we need a fast affordable way to move from point A to point B. One solution that’s flexible, convenient and simple is Kinto Rent," a press statement noted.
During the event, Nagayasu said: “Kinto is part of our strategy to transition from a car manufacturing company to a mobility company by providing new transport-related services to our valued customers in Qatar and across the world."
Al-abdulghani added, “The Kinto global brand was launched three years ago as a brand owned by Toyota Financial Services Corporation, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation. This brand revolves around providing innovative and new mobility services to customers in a way that integrates technology, product and customer requirements in an accessible and flexible manner.”
Over the last decade, Qatar has made significant progress towards becoming a leader in the use of information technology. AAB aims to build on that momentum and play a key role in driving Qatar’s economic diversification and growth strategy to comply with Qatar National Vision 2030, the statement points out.
AAB collaborates with the Kinto global headquarters in Nagoya, Japan, under the supervision of TMC to bring its services and brand ideology to Qatar.
