TIME has named its first list of the Arabia's Growth Leaders of 2026, partnering with Statista, a leading international provider of market and consumer data and rankings. The ranking is based on a comprehensive analysis to identify the top performing publicly listed companies in the GCC countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates). The companies were selected using data from Statista’s revenue database, which also included company growth data for the last five years. The companies had to be considered for the evaluation and were headquartered in Bahrain, Kuwait.
