Motiwala cultivates an untapped digital gold market in Southeast Asia
Ever since the outbreak of Covid-19, investors worldwide have turned to transfer part of their assets into gold investment to avoid market uncertainties and take advantage of gold’s reliable store of value. Investors have always cited gold as a safe haven when market uncertainties intensify, and the events in 2020 further confirmed the established correlation between gold and market risk levels.
Since January 2020, the gold price has zipped up 25% by the end of the year, even hitting a record high of over $2,000 per ounce at one point for the first time in history.
Along with the growth of demand for gold-related investments, supply grows too. A Dubai-based precious metal supplier known as Motiwala caught sight of the growth in demand and is determined to make use of this opportunity to become a world leader in the precious metal industry.
How Motiwala accumulated sand grain into mountain
Motiwala Jewellers LLC is a certified precious metal refinery, gold processor, bullion manufacturer, and precious metal supplier based in Dubai. Renowned for its complete and diversified rare metal business network, Motiwala Jewellers is one of the top 5 gold merchants globally and one of the largest refineries in the Middle East region.
But Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes a lot of passion and hard work to build such a spectacular precious metal empire. Its founder, Iqbal Bhai from Pakistan, founded Motiwala 40 years ago and has been in the gold industry since then. He started as a gold and jewellery wholesaler in his home country and later found success when he filed a patent for the international gold market fair in Dubai after discovering its undeveloped gold market.
Through several decades of development, Motiwala Jewellers established subsidiary companies to further diversify the range of services it provides and as an effort to complete its supply chain. It is now the holding company of Motiwala Gold Trading, Motiwala Gold & Precious Stone Industry, Motiwala Gold & Metal Laboratory, Shaheen Exchange.
Since then, the company’s businesses have expanded to cover gold mining, processing, jewellery design, jewellery retail stores, physical gold trading, gold and metal laboratories, precious stones & diamond retail stores, and currency exchange.
With its refinery and an ISO 17025 certified in-house laboratory, Motiwala can produce gold bullion at the finest quality and allow investors to purchase gold bars ranging from 1 gram to 100 grams in size at a competitive price in its physical stores, thus allowing all investors to start investing in gold regardless of their capital size.
Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven
The gold market in Asia, Southeast Asia in particular, are underdeveloped, but experts are confident that Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven in the near future as Southeast Asia has one of the fastest rates of digital payment adoption and more than 400 million internet users. The strong tech foundations were laid by the appealing regulatory landscape and strong government support that has escalated the growth of innovation and healthy competition in this region.
In response to the year-long pandemic crisis, part of the gold and jewellery retailers in Asia are moving their retail businesses onto the internet to reach online consumers and combat the highly contagious virus simultaneously. With robust governance and regulations, digital gold has been gaining much traction in the Southeast Asia market.
Tapping into Southeast Asia’s growing digital gold landscape
Envisioned to become the world leader for dealers and traders from across the globe and to achieve sustainable quality growth, Motiwala co-founded Moti Investment Capital (MIC) in 2018 to expand its global presence in the capital trading sector. The establishment of MIC will enable investors to achieve low-risk, sustainable returns using Motiwala’s unique set of the gold supply chain.
As the first step to globalize its operation, Motiwala has tapped into Southeast Asian countries, providing a wide array of services to the new countries, including asset management, physical gold trading and more. With Motiwala’s supply chain and diverse line of services, it will allow investors to purchase physical gold even if the investors are located outside of Dubai.
In 2018, member countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had consumed 309 tonnes of gold, making Southeast Asia the third-largest market for gold in the world. With the combination of rapid digital adoption, the cultural importance of gold in the region, and low expansion costs, it makes Southeast Asia an ideal region as the first step in Motiwala’s globalization.
MOTIWALA announces partnership with BIS
Motiwala has recently announced its partnership with BIS to expand its global presence. BIS Holding is the first of its kind asset management firm to provide unique investment opportunities for investors, allowing clients to have the privilege to participate in the markets like a real corporate level liquidity provider.
“We are excited to partner with BIS,” said Iqbal Bhai, Founder of Motiwala group. “Through this strategic partnership, Motiwala and BIS can form a clear win-win relationship to provide more value to your existing customers. It would also bolster the long-term partnership between Motiwala and BIS as both firms continue to seek opportunities to achieve business expansion.”

WHY VANESSA HUDGENS CHOSE AMAZON’S EKOUAER OVER LUXURY LABELS — AND WHAT IT REVEALS ABOUT FASHION’S NEW ERA
New York, US / Timesnewswire / October 2, 2026 – For decades, A-list celebrity endorsements followed a predictable blueprint: high fashion, multi-million-dollar haute couture deals, and unattainable luxury. But this fall, Hollywood star Vanessa Hudgens is continuing her game-changing fashion narrative with Amazon’s sleepwear and loungewear giant, EKOUAER.
First announced as an official EKOUAER Brand Friend earlier this July, Hudgens’ collaboration with the brand hits a major crescendo this October as EKOUAER celebrates its 11th Anniversary. Rather than aligned with exclusive runaway brands, Hudgens has embraced the ultimate daily wardrobe staple used by millions of everyday women across America.
“Becoming a mom has definitely made me appreciate versatility even more,” says Vanessa Hudgens. “I want pieces that are comfortable and easy for everyday life, but that I can dress up and still feel really good in.”
As EKOUAER marks its 11-year milestone, the timing coincides with October’s major Amazon shopping moment, proving that “everyday comfort” is officially beating traditional luxury status symbols. The star’s fall favorites spotlight pieces engineered for multi-scenario living, including the viral Ekouaer Satin Pajamas Set with Bow Tie Front and and the versatile, ultra-cozy Ekouaer 2-Piece Pleated Lounge & Sweater Set. “For me, it’s about finding that sweet spot where you feel comfortable but still put together,” Hudgens adds. “I love being able to take the same piece and completely change the feeling of it depending on how I style it.”
As EKOUAER kicks off its 11th Anniversary celebrations, the alliance redefines modern celebrity style: luxury isn’t about the price tag—it’s about effortless comfort.

From One Store to 400 Daily Orders: 70-Year-Old Lalit Kumar Takes Natural Spices Online Across UAE
The Indian-born businessman has lived and worked in the UAE since 1983. Now 70, he has taken a single grocery store online, and it handles around 400 orders a day.
Dubai, Al Nahda 1, United Arab Emirates, 2nd Oct 2026 – When shipments were getting stuck and many small shops decided to sit tight, Lalit Kumar did the opposite. At 70, the owner of Natural Spices and Foodstuff Trading LLC moved his grocery business online. Today it delivers to customers in every emirate.
He started with one retail outlet and five staff. The business now handles about 400 orders a day through its own website, NaturalSpicesUAE.com, and through the UAE’s major online marketplaces. It sells spices, herbs, Indian groceries, snacks, dry fruits and other daily essentials.
Forty Years in the UAE
Mr. Kumar came to the UAE from India in 1983. Since then he has run businesses in electronics, transport, and oil and gas, and now in foodstuff. He says each one prepared him for the next. Electronics taught him how customers think. Transport taught him about timing. Oil and gas taught him patience.
“I came here as a young man and this country gave me a chance. It gave my family a home. I have never taken that for granted, and everything I build here is my way of saying thank you.”
— Lalit Kumar, Owner, Natural Spices and Foodstuff Trading LLC
Moving When Others Waited
The shift online came at a hard time for retail. Deliveries were running late, costs were going up and fewer people were walking into shops. Mr. Kumar decided not to wait it out.
With his team of five, he set up online ordering, reorganised the stock and worked out packing and delivery, all from the same store they were already running. The website went live, the products went onto the marketplaces, and orders started coming in from across the country.
“I have seen this market go up and down many times since 1983. If you stop every time things get difficult, you will never move. At my age people expect me to slow down. I would rather see what comes next.”
— Lalit Kumar
Still in the Store Every Day
Orders now go out to Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. Customers say they come back for the range, the fair prices and delivery they can count on.
Growth hasn’t pulled Mr. Kumar away from the business. He is in the store every day. He talks to customers himself, bargains with suppliers and makes the big decisions. His staff say he has more energy than most of them, and he still knows many of his regulars by name.
“A customer is a person, not an order number. Whether they walk into the shop or order from Fujairah, they should get the same respect and the same fair price. That is how I have always worked. A website doesn’t change that.”
— Lalit Kumar
Looking Ahead
Over the coming months, the company plans to add more products, grow its marketplace presence and improve delivery across the UAE.
“I have been building businesses in this country for more than forty years, and I still feel like I’m starting out. As long as I have the energy, I’ll keep going, for my customers, my team and for the UAE.”
— Lalit Kumar

Memito Opens Token Sale on Ethereum With Formula-Based Pricing and Multi-Network Payments
Memito, a community meme token on Ethereum, has opened a token sale on memito.org. The price is calculated by a formula in the verified smart contract, and the sale accepts five assets on Ethereum, a bridge from five networks and a wide range of wallets.
Canada, 2nd Oct 2026 – Memito (MEMITO), a community meme token on Ethereum, has opened its public token sale at memito.org, making participation available worldwide in 24 languages, with five payment assets, a built-in bridge from five networks and support for seven popular wallets. The sale is run directly by the token’s smart contract, which is published and verified on Etherscan.
Formula-based pricing set in the contract
Instead of fixed sale rounds, the token price is calculated by a formula written into the smart contract. The formula starts at 0.00000018585 USD per token and adjusts the price according to the total amount raised in the sale. Before confirming a transaction, each participant is shown the calculated quote for the selected amount. Tokens are transferred to the participant’s wallet within the same on-chain transaction, so there is no separate claim step. Trading of the token has not opened, and no date has been set.
Payment options across networks
The sale accepts ETH, USDT, USDC, DAI and WBTC on Ethereum, with individual transactions from about 1 USD to 10,000 USD. For users whose funds are held on BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Base, Polygon or Optimism, the website integrates the third-party LI.FI bridge, which can move funds to ETH on Ethereum and shows the route fees before signing. The website is available in 24 languages.
The sale page supports MetaMask, Trust Wallet, OKX Wallet, Bitget Wallet, Binance Wallet and Bybit Wallet (via WalletConnect), as well as other WalletConnect-compatible wallets, on desktop and mobile devices.
“Memito started as a meme, but we are building it as a community first,” the Memito team said. “We wanted anyone, from any network and in their own language, to be able to join from day one, with the rules of the sale written openly into the contract. The community on X and Telegram is where we share every next step.”
Token details
The token contract address is 0xe02AD79732658a2ec2C85Ecd15De5E08A311373C. Maximum supply is 420,690,000,000,000 MEMITO. When trading opens, the final supply is allocated as follows: 60% to buyers, referrals and the liquidity pool, 10% to a reserve, 15% to the founder share held in the project’s Ecosystem Wallet and 15% to the treasury. The deploying wallet received no tokens at launch.
About Memito
Memito (MEMITO) is a community meme token (ERC-20) on Ethereum, distributed through a formula-priced token sale on memito.org. More information is available on the project website and on its X and Telegram channels.
The token sale is open now at memito.org, where participants can review the contract details and the current quote before taking part.
