Doha: Al Meera has opened its new branch in Al Wakra (East), making it the third Al Meera branch to open its doors to consumers in Al Wakra.
The new Al Wakra (East) shopping center is located in the Al Jabal Area, with the branch entailing a total 2267 m2, of which around 1500 m2 is the supermarket area. The branch provides sections for vegetables, fruits and delicatessen, along with self-service stations for chicken and meat; in addition to a number of shops and restaurants, which will begin providing its services to the shopping centers’ visitors at the soonest.
The inauguration was done by Dr Saif Said Al Sowaidi, Vice Chairman of Al Meera, in the presence of Al Meera management.
“We are committed to providing the best services to all citizens and residents in the State of Qatar, especially for the city dwellers that witnessed a great population growth. Hence the opening of the Al Wakra (East) branch comes as a result of the massive growth witnessed by Al Wakra, whose rise in residents required another branch to meet their needs,” he said.
The current expansion phase of the 5 stores that was put in motion, which is set to add a total of 9,709 m2 Supermarket Area to the Company’s presence in Qatar, is part of Al Meera’s ‘14 shopping centers’ expansion plan that was announced in 2015.
