DUBAI: The CEO of Kuwait Flour Mills and Bakeries Company, Mutlaq Al-Zayed, announced on Tuesday, that the company plans to open a new branch in Dubai in the form of a boutique as part of its ambitious expansion plan locally, regionally and across the Gulf.

On the company’s local expansion plans, Al-Zayed announced the intention to open a boutique in the Mubarakiya area this month, which will offer fresh products and coffee.

He explained that the opening aims to keep pace with developments in marketing, production, and target demographics, particularly the youth.

Al-Zayed also mentioned a forthcoming collaboration with both public and private sector entities, including Kuwait Airways, to organize an event at the Kuwait International Fairgrounds in Mishref to highlight the importance of food security in supporting the national economy.

Regarding the Kuwaiti-Emirati Week, Al-Zayed emphasized its significance as an important platform for exchanging ideas, sharing experiences, and presenting ongoing projects between the two countries, with the aim of developing or launching new initiatives that will benefit their shared interests within the Gulf framework. — KUNA
