Jacky’s

From modest beginnings in Hong Kong, we started out with ambition, zeal and the determination to go global and become successful. Along the way, we occasionally modified our goals, explored new directions and formed new and lasting alliances.
Jacky’s’ global success would not be complete without Dubai, a market that has contributed significantly to the Group’s fortunes and presently occupies pride of place in Jacky’s’ worldwide network.
Since 1970, we have expanded simultaneously on several fronts – mail order, retail outlets, distributorships, warehousing and logistics and the development of ‘Venus’, an in-house brand of domestic appliances. More importantly, the expansion moved the frontiers of operations into a wider global arena, covering Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.

The UAE’s electronics retail giant, Jacky’s, completed 40 years of its global operations in Year 2010. From humble beginnings in Hong Kong in 1970 to its current status as one of the leading international traders in electronics and general merchandise, the company has indeed come a long way.
An important factor that has contributed to its success is Jacky’s ability to adapt itself to the needs of the times. For instance, in the last 40 years, Jacky’s manifested its acumen and will to take critical decisions at crucial junctures – the progression from wholesale to retail; the expansions from single to multiple retail units; the evolution of Venus, the company’s own brand; acquisition of distributor rights for important international brands; entry at the right time into potential markets of the Gulf, CIS countries and Africa.
