Saudi Arabia Food and Drink Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, food and drink associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Saudi Arabia's food and drink industry.

A promising domestic demand story continues to take shape in Saudi Arabia. Two key factors drive BMI's core Saudi consumer view. First, a relatively large population thoroughly distinguishes it from the rest of the Gulf region, which bodes particularly well for long-term carry in household spending growth. Second, household spending is coming off a fairly low base in Saudi Arabia compared to the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait in particular, on a per capita GDP basis.

As incomes rise, Saudi consumers will spend more on fast-moving consumer goods (FMCGs), which will bump up per capita food consumption and mass grocery retail sales. In the luxury sector there is potentially huge scope for growth in Saudi Arabia. Like their Gulf counterparts, Saudi consumers are very brand conscious. As incomes grow, demand for high-value luxury goods will follow suit as more high-end retailers flock to the country.
