Saudi’s Barn’s Plans to Open 1000 Stores in the Kingdom and Globally by 2030

The Saudi coffee chain, Barn’s, a drive-thru coffee chain, has announced plans to open 1000 branches in Saudi Arabia and around the world.

Barn’s achieved a significant milestone by reaching 700 stores across Saudi Arabia, with the opening of a new location in the vibrant commercial area of Town Square in Jeddah.

This achievement marks a significant turning point for the Al Amjaad Group-owned brand, which aims to expand its presence to 800 stores by the end of 2024 and ultimately reach 1000 stores worldwide by 2030.

In addition to strengthening its presence in Saudi Arabia, known as the largest market for branded coffee shops in the Middle East, Barn’s is preparing to embark on its international journey.

Following its expected debut in Bahrain in the first quarter of 2024, the coffee chain looks forward to global expansion across at least 10 markets.

Thanks to a recent Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Chain Consulting Oman, Barn’s is preparing to enter the Omani market while actively exploring opportunities in Egypt and the UAE.

Furthermore, a strategic franchise agreement with Premier Fine Foods in Malaysia indicates ambitious plans for Barn’s to launch 300 stores across Southeast Asia over the next decade.

At the same time, anticipation is building for Barn’s entry into the United States and Europe.

The MoU signed with Abu Dhabi-based UrbanTrade International in August 2023 paved the way for the brand’s launch in the US, with New York emerging as a potential flagship location.

In Europe, the UK is considered a key market for Barn’s global expansion plans, with the brand initially aiming to open 10 stores in London, while the broader European market is seen as fertile ground for growth, as highlighted during the Paris Franchise Expo in March 2024.
