Following the directives of the Saudi Arabian Government, Fawaz Abdulaziz Alhokair Co. has reopened its fashion and retail units across the Kingdom, except for its outlets in Makkah.
The company stated that the health and safety of its customers and employees continues to be of paramount importance and that it’s working to ensure the cleanliness and sterilisation of its stores in readiness for reopening and helping its retail partners prepare.
Stores in shopping centres will be open from 9.30am to 4.30pm daily and the company’s food and beverage outlets will be available through mobile apps for delivery from 3pm to 3am. A smaller number of retail units that operate in street locations have already reopened.
“Fawaz Abdulaziz Al Hokair wants to thank the authorities and the Ministry of Health for its efforts and actions that have helped create such favourable conditions, and one of the safest situations globally, to enable us to resume our business operations ahead of most countries,” says Marwan Moukarzel, CEO of Fawaz Abdulaziz Al Hokair.
“In preparation for opening we are working closely with our partners to ensure the highest standards of health and safety are in place. During the ongoing crisis, the safety of our customers and staff has been our priority and we look forward to welcoming our customers back to enjoy shopping during the Holy Month of Ramadan.”
As part of the ongoing measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and as part of the reopening programme, no refund or exchange of goods will be permitted during this period, changing rooms will be closed, and contactless payments by credit or debit card is encouraged.
Fawaz Abdulaziz Al Hokair operates 1,550 stores across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
