+
+## Market overview
+
+Oman is a sultanate with a relatively moderate Gulf business environment. Muscat is the commercial capital. Oman is diversifying from oil revenues under Vision 2040 — focusing on tourism, manufacturing, logistics, and renewable energy. Salalah and Sohar are significant port and industrial cities. Oman is known as the most stable and politically moderate of the Gulf states.
+
+**Primary business hubs:** Muscat, Salalah, Sohar, Duqm (special economic zone).
+
+## Outreach benchmarks & strategy
+
+Omani B2B outreach is best conducted through formal business channels and relationship-building. The market is smaller than UAE or Saudi Arabia but more relationship-oriented and less transactional. English is widely used in business.
+
+## Files in this dataset
+
+| File | Contents |
+|---|---|
+| `data/market_overview.csv` | Segment-level metrics: contact volume, benchmark rates, send timing |
+| `data/industry_benchmarks.csv` | Open/reply benchmarks across 14 industry verticals |
+| `data/compliance.csv` | Regulatory framework, business culture, decision-maker profile, hubs |
+
+## Methodology
+
+Figures are aggregated and anonymized from LeadsBlue's verified contact operations and public business-registry baselines. No personal records are included in this dataset — only segment-level statistics.
