Fails WP:GNG; WP:NCORP and NOTCRUNCHBASE very much applies here. Defunct - mostly Arabic - booksales website/POD operation in the Middle East, first in Jordan then the UAE. It started up, it closed down. There is no enduring impact or change in the market that resulted from its existence. The only likely ATD would be a redirect to Fadi Ghandour, but at the most it would be one of hundreds, if not thousands, of investments that Ghandour has made - and it's not really outstanding or worthy of a merge at his page.

- Weak delete: I was heading towards a delete opinion, though reading a web translation of the company's own detailed and frank description of their business history, the impact of Amazon acquiring into their market, etc. made me wonder if some form of WP:ATD towards the wider view might exist? The decent coverage of this and other e-comm firms in Christopher Schroeder's 2017 MIT Technology Review article encourages that view, though I still see no suitable target.

- Delete Nothing I can find that meets GNG/WP:NCORP criteria for establishing notability. I don't see any ATD target either. HighKing++ 15:40, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
