Pret A Manger, the UK-based freshly made food and organic coffee chain, is expanding its operations in Dubai with two new shops openings. The first opening, at Index Mall opened, July 4th following with the opening at Bay Avenue Mall.
Known for its delicious and wide-ranging fresh food and coffee options, this fast and friendly London establishment provides customers with the same warmth and hospitality made famous in the UK. It’s no surprise that the three existing Pret shops in DIFC and DXB Airport Terminals 1 & 3 have already had huge success, as demand for the chain in the UAE has been extraordinary, resulting in the opening of these highly anticipated new shops.
Opening in the Dubai International Financial District (DIFC) located at Index Mall and Bay Avenue Mall, these two new locations are perfectly placed for busy professionals and residents in the area to pass by daily to grab their go-to favourite Pret beverages and snacks.
Founded in London in 1986, Pret has grown to become one of the most loved brands in the coffee industry, with over 500 locations in 10 countries. Pret has a long history of providing convenient and high-quality coffee and fresh food to customers globally, including well-known favourites, such as the Posh Cheddar and Pickle Baguette and the All Butter Croissant.
To celebrate the opening of the new shops, customers can look forward to some exciting goodies on opening day, including; local Pret merchandise, Pret snack bars, and vouchers for complementary Pret items. Nestled in the energetic DIFC area, the two new locations are sure to become a regular hotspot for office coffee runs, meetings of friends and colleagues, and a daily pit stop to grab lunch.
Eira Jarvis, Managing Director, Asia said: “Since we launched Pret in Dubai, the response has been incredible, so opening these new shops is a natural next step as we continue growing to meet demand from Pret fans across the city. From office coffee runs to pit stops for breakfast, lunch, or snacks, we’re excited to be bringing our freshly made food and organic coffee to even more people.”
The expansion forms part of a long-term franchise partnership with Emirates Leisure Retail, which is set to see 20 shops open in the UAE over the next few years, creating hundreds of jobs. Pret A Manger already has a strong presence in Asia, with shops in Hong Kong and Singapore, alongside the UAE.
Customers are encouraged to visit and experience the ‘Pret effect’ first hand with a variety of delicious food and drink options that has made Pret A Manger the loved brand it is today.
