The company has since become the largest franchise retailer in the KSA, MENA, Central Asia and Caucasus regions, and is the only public listed business of its type in the Middle East. Quality, innovation, service and trust are the guiding principles for all Alhokair Fashion Retail operations. These values are coupled with an ability to move quickly, to seize new opportunities and to enter emerging markets.
