PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Hypermarkets set to benefit from further store expansion
The outlook for hypermarkets in the United Arab Emirates is positive, with value sales (at constant 2024 prices) and outlets expected to continue growing over the forecast period. Its performance will be supported by its strength in the local market as the largest channel within grocery retailers (in value terms), an expanding population, and improving disposable incomes as inflation slows, alongside more diversified offerings.
Competition will intensify between private sector and cooperatives
The launch of Federal Decree-Law No. 6 of 2022 resulted in significant reforms for the cooperative sector in the United Arab Emirates.
Hypermarkets to broaden wellness and sustainable offerings
