Albaik’s CEO, Rami Abu Ghazala, reconfirmed the company’s commitment to launching in Pakistan, stating that the expansion is in its final stages. The process began with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Albaik and Gas & Oil Pakistan Ltd (GO) last year, which laid the foundation for this significant move.

The company, known for its signature fried chicken, seafood, and garlic sauce, has gained immense popularity across the Middle East. With over 120 restaurants in Saudi Arabia and beyond, its entry into Pakistan is expected to enhance the country’s fast-food industry and offer consumers a taste of its globally loved menu.

Pakistan’s Federal Minister for Commerce, Jam Kamal Khan, recently visited Albaik’s plants in Jeddah. During his visit, he toured the company’s operations and met Pakistani employees working at the fast-food giant. He appreciated their contributions to the brand and welcomed Albaik’s entry into Pakistan, emphasizing its potential to transform the country’s fast-food landscape.

The minister also held a high-profile meeting with Albaik’s leadership, where they discussed business collaborations and investment opportunities. The Ministry of Commerce later issued a statement confirming that Albaik’s expansion into Pakistan was progressing rapidly, with the first outlets set to open soon.

The minister’s visit to Jeddah was part of broader efforts to strengthen trade and investment ties between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. His engagements took place during the first-ever “Made in Pakistan” exhibition, which focused on attracting Saudi investments and promoting Pakistani exports.

  • Bilateral Trade Growth: Pakistan’s exports to Saudi Arabia have seen a 22% increase, reaching $700 million.
  • Investment Opportunities: Saudi business leaders expressed strong interest in sectors like construction materials, textiles, food, IT, agriculture, energy, and healthcare.
  • Ease-of-Doing-Business Initiatives: Pakistan introduced measures like the Pakistan Single Window (PSW) and the National Compliance Centre to streamline trade regulations and improve export standards.

Saudi investors showed a keen interest in collaborating with Pakistani businesses. Several proposals were discussed to enhance trade partnerships and industrial investment. The minister invited Saudi business leaders to visit Pakistan and participate in major trade exhibitions such as TEXPO, Food-AG, and the Healthcare & Mineral Show.

Additionally, Saudi businesses were assured of a business-friendly environment in Pakistan, featuring tax exemptions, investor protection laws, and access to a 240-million-strong consumer market.

Pakistan’s economic ties with Saudi Arabia go beyond trade and investment. The minister acknowledged the contributions of Pakistani expatriates in Saudi Arabia, highlighting:

  • 1.7 million Pakistanis have traveled to Saudi Arabia in the past five years, making it the top destination for Pakistani emigrants.
  • $7.4 billion in remittances were sent from Saudi Arabia last fiscal year, reinforcing the strong financial link between the two countries.
  • Pakistan Investor Forum in Jeddah was recently established to guide new businesses and strengthen Pakistani-Saudi collaborations.

To facilitate business exchanges, the Pakistani government has introduced a Revised Visa Policy, allowing GCC citizens to enter Pakistan visa-free for up to 90 days. This initiative is expected to make business travel more convenient and encourage further Saudi investments in Pakistan.

With Albaik’s expansion into Pakistan in its final stages, the country’s fast-food industry is set for a major transformation. The brand’s entry is expected to not only create employment opportunities but also attract further Saudi investment in Pakistan’s growing consumer market.

Minister Jam Kamal Khan’s visit to Jeddah and discussions with Saudi business leaders have reinforced Pakistan’s commitment to fostering strong economic ties with Saudi Arabia. With increasing trade volumes, new business collaborations, and Albaik’s imminent launch, the Pakistan-Saudi economic corridor is set to expand further, bringing exciting opportunities for both nations.
