About Arbuz
Arbuz is an online grocery and retail delivery service in Kazakhstan, and one of the lifestyle services offered inside the Freedom SuperApp. Freedom Holding bought a controlling interest in May 2023 and the remaining 5.27% during the year to March 2025, so it now owns all of it. Growing order volume at Arbuz is one of the two reasons the group gives for its rise in sales of goods.

About the owner: Freedom Holding
Freedom Holding is a publicly listed company headquartered in Almaty, Kazakhstan, founded in 2015. Brandtree records 9 brands under its control, and it is listed as Nasdaq: FRHC.
Freedom Holding is a Nevada-incorporated, Nasdaq-listed financial group whose business is run from Kazakhstan. It took its present form in November 2015, when BMB Munai, a Kazakh energy company first incorporated in Utah in 1981, agreed to acquire the brokerage companies of Timur Turlov, who remains its chief executive, chairman and controlling shareholder. It reports four segments, Brokerage, Banking, Insurance and Other, and has grown since 2020 by buying a Kazakh consumer bank, two insurers, a grocery delivery service, travel and ticketing sites and, from 2024, telecom companies; the consumer businesses are being drawn into a single super app.
