Eataly Opens New Restaurants In Saudi Arabia And Qatar

The Italian restaurant chain Eataly has announced that it will be opening new restaurants in Saudi Arabia and Qatar. A company spokesperson said they had chosen to expand to the Middle Eastern countries due to the strong demand for Italian cuisine and relative lack of competition in the region. Saudi Arabia and Qatar are not the first Middle Eastern countries that Eataly has entered. It entered the United Arab Emirates in 2013, and reported 17% sales growth in the country last year compared to 2014.
