Khaberni - The participation of the captain of Al-Nassr Club, Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, in the "Founding Day" celebrations was not just a fleeting celebratory snapshot, but it recorded a local and international purchasing surge with more than 1,000 orders within hours on Founding Day.
The maker of bishts and the representative of Saudi Arabia at the "Expo 2025 in Japan," Ali Al-Ghawas, told Al-Eqtisadiah newspaper: "Ronaldo's bisht is considered one of the rarest and most valuable types, with a lifespan of its model extending over 50 years, and is valued at 80,000 Riyals."
Al-Ghawas confirmed that the bisht's dedicated website experienced a huge surge, leading to its temporary shutdown, and said: "Due to the volume of visits, the team received thousands of inquiries and calls from both inside and outside the kingdom."
Al-Ghawas explained that the coordination with Al-Nassr Club was managed through "Time Kode" company, aiming to raise cultural awareness about this rare type of bisht and presenting it as a global national product.
