Al Meera Opens Branch in Umm Slal Ali
February 08, 2017
Al Meera Consumer Goods Company has opened a branch in
Umm Slal Ali, marking the launch of
the third shopping centre in the company’s
previously announced 14-store expansion
plan.
The event marks the third launch in Al Meera’s current
five-store expansion phase in the country,
after the opening of both the Bu Sidra and
North Sailiya (Al Miarad) branches, with the
remaining two stores nearing completion and
slated to open in Al Wakra (West) and
Leaibab 2.
Al Meera said six stores are under
construction that began during the second
half of 2016. These include branches in
Rawdat Aba El Heran, Azghawa, Leabaib, and
Umm Qarn – to be built on a land area of
10,805sqm, 6,311sqm, 17,390sqm, and
10,230sqm, respectively, while the branches
in both Al Khor and Sailiya are to be built
on a land area of 15,000sqm each.
The state-of-the-art stores will bring the
expansion plan to a total of 11 out of 14
branches.
The 4,014sqm new shopping centre in Umm Slal
Ali, next to the Saad Bin Moaz School,
features a 1,750sqm supermarket designed to
serve residents in the area with fresh food
sections. The supermarket’s ‘fresh sections’
include butchery, fishery, bakery, and a
delicatessen.
The store exhibits Al Meera’s trademark
modern interior designs and shelves, as well
as advanced technologies and facilities that
have become equivalent to the retailer’s
community shopping centres around the
country.
To serve the community’s diverse shopping
needs under one roof, the Umm Slal Ali
branch also includes nine shops, a
restaurant area, and a small food court. A
dedicated parking space and other facilities
further augment customers’ experience at the
shopping centre.
