333 Mega-Market, founded by entrepreneur Dr. Mirza Henderson (PhD), has become a standout establishment in Juffair. A long-time resident of Bahrain for more than 15 years, Dr. Henderson’s profound love for the Kingdom inspired her to recreate the charm of a traditional Bahraini souq.
333 Mega-Market is more than just a retail space – it’s a hub for promoting Bahraini heritage. Through partnerships with local entrepreneurs, the market showcases an array of authentic Bahraini products, including exquisite jewellery, luxurious handcrafted carpets and beautifully designed abayas. By integrating these unique offerings, Dr. Henderson has created an immersive experience that highlights the Kingdom’s craftsmanship and cultural richness.
Beyond being a commercial endeavour, 333 Mega-Market also provides opportunity. Through this initiative, Dr. Henderson has supported small businesses and created employment for more than 40 individuals. Her vision to uplift the local economy while providing visitors with a genuine cultural experience exemplifies her commitment to both community and commerce.
Furthermore, it is designed to offer visiting Americans a glimpse into the Kingdom’s rich culture when their ships dock at the nearby Naval Support Activity Bahrain.
Adding to its allure, 33 Mega-Market offers diverse facilities such as a custom jewellery service, a relaxing café lounge serving fresh juices, coffee and pastries, as well as mobile accessories and car rental services. With its inviting atmosphere, the venue has become a space where tradition meets modern convenience, providing customers with ‘A Moment to Relax.’
The space can also be used for gatherings. On November 20, Mega-Market played host to a prestigious event: the Top Nominees High-Tea for the Woman of the Year Awards 2024. Organised by Woman This Month and attended by remarkable female achievers, the event was a celebration of inspiration and networking. Valet services ensured nominees felt pampered, and the setting offered a luxurious yet welcoming backdrop.
The event was further graced by the presence of Ms. Meghan M. Bondy, the guest of honour and wife of the US Ambassador to Bahrain, Steven C. Bondy. Attendees relished the opportunity to forge meaningful connections while exploring the beautifully curated products of 333 Mega-Market. The evening was a testament to the space’s versatility and its founder’s vision of fostering community and collaboration.
Dr. Henderson’s efforts to create a space that bridges cultures and empowers small businesses have made 333 Mega-Market a cornerstone of Juffair’s vibrant community. Whether shopping for one-of-a-kind treasures, enjoying a cup of coffee or participating in events that celebrate achievement, 333 Mega-Market’s doors are open to all.
