The opening of the new branch comes nearly 30 years after the first Burger King outlet opened in Riyadh in 1992.
Burger King already operates thousands of outlets across the world, meaning that customers across the globe are able to access their high-quality fast food meals. The world-famous, iconic brand is now available in the Saudi Arabian desert in the Ancient City of AlUla, which is currently undergoing a period of transformation, turning into a new global tourism destination.
The branch has been opened by Olayan Food Services Co, the exclusive agent for Burger King in the Middle East.
Khalid bin Mohammed Al-Ghamdi, Vice President of Olayan Food Services Co, commented: “The opening of the first Burger King branch in AlUla is part of our expanding strategy to spread within the Kingdom wherever visitors and citizens are located. We are happy to present to the visitors of AlUla their favourite meals from the Burger King in a charming heritage and civil atmosphere, through an unparalleled atmosphere that reflects the history, heritage and traditions of AlUla while preserving the aspect of international taste and prompt service.”
