Affinity Advisors is a corporate advisory firm headquartered in Muscat, Oman, operating under the umbrella of Modern Future Promoter LLC. We were founded on a simple conviction: that the gap between strategy and execution is where most businesses lose their edge.
Our work sits at the intersection of operations, people development, and customer experience — with a particular depth of expertise in luxury retail, jewellery, watches, and lifestyle brands. Every engagement begins with understanding the business from the inside, and ends with tangible change that teams can feel and customers can see.
We don't deliver theory from a boardroom. We work alongside your teams on the shop floor, at the counter, and in the back office — because that's where standards are built and sustained.
Yousif Al-Tamimy is a seasoned business leader whose career spans global retail, healthcare, and education. As a Director at Costco Optical Europe — a division of the world's third-largest retailer — he gained first-hand experience of operational excellence at a global scale, from supply chain discipline and customer experience to the rigorous standards that define world-class retail.
An entrepreneur at heart, Yousif acquired two underperforming eye clinics in London, restructured their operations, returned them to profitability, and ultimately sold both as successful going concerns. That turnaround experience sharpened his instinct for diagnosing what's broken inside a business and fixing it — fast.
Today, alongside Affinity Advisors, Yousif serves as CEO of RoboThink Oman — the Omani arm of the globally renowned STEM education franchise operating across 30+ countries. Under his leadership, RoboThink Oman delivers robotics, engineering, and coding programmes that prepare the next generation for a technology-driven future.
It is this breadth of experience — from the world's largest retailers to turning around his own ventures — that underpins the practical, results-driven advisory Affinity Advisors is known for.
Our training isn't confined to a classroom. We work directly with your teams in their environment — refining technique, building confidence, and embedding the habits that drive consistent, high-quality customer interactions.
