Qatar's Al Meera Consumer Goods Company recently opened its newest branch in Umm Salal Ali, which marks the launch of the third shopping centre in its previously announced 14-store expansion plan.

The branch brings Al Meera’s distinctive shopping experience to one more of the country’s underserved regions as part of the company’s mission to provide consumers in every area of the country a great shopping experience that provides true value for money, a statement said.
 
The company has already opened two branches in Bu Sidra and North Sailiya (Al Miarad) as part of its expansion and two more are due to open in the near future in Al Wakra (West) and Leaibab 2.

In addition to the aforementioned, there are six stores that are currently under construction, including in Rawdat Aba El Heran, Azghawa, Leabaib and Umm Qarn, Al Khor and Sailiya. These state-of-the-art stores will bring the expansion plan to a total of 11 out of 14 branches.

The 4014 sq m new shopping centre located in Umm Salal Ali – next to the Saad Bin Moaz School – features a 1750 sq m supermarket that has been equipped to serve residents in the area with fresh sections that Al Meera clients grew used to shopping from at all of its newly opened and renovated stores. The Supermarket’s Fresh Sections include a Butchery, Fishery, Bakery and a Delicatessen.

The store exhibits Al Meera’s trademark modern interior designs and shelving installations, as well as advanced technologies and facilities that have become equivalent to the Retailer’s community shopping centers around the country, the statement said.
 
To serve the community’s diverse shopping needs under one roof, the Umm Salal Ali branch also includes nine shops, a restaurant area and small food court. A dedicated parking space and other facilities further augment customers’ experience at the shopping centre.

Sheikh Thani Bin Thamer Al Thani, Al Meera’s chairman, said: "We are truly pleased to introduce Umm Salal Ali’s residents with the answer to their shopping needs and to play a significant role in the real-estate development of the area, which has been highlighted in the State’s country-wide urbanisation plan. As with every new branch that Al Meera opens, the Umm Salal Ali branch is designed to exceed consumers’ expectations with a distinctive, integrated shopping experience that sets a benchmark for retail chains across the country.” - TradeArabia News Service
