UAE-based heathy food brand Under500 recently expanded its reach in Saudi Arabia. The restaurant will open 20 new locations in KSA in the coming years. This new milestone is part of Under500’s growth strategy and drive to spread the concept of healthy bespoke eating to the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and beyond.
Since its founding in 2016 in Dubai, Under500 has rapidly expanded across the MENA region, opening three new restaurants in its first year alone, with unique offerings satisfying the diverse palates of customers. The distinctive eatery fuses a healthy base, topped with wholesome ingredients, delivered to customers at affordable prices.
“Health and nutrition are at the forefront of what we do, and we are eager to spread our passion globally,” says Under500 co-founder, Mahmoud Bartawi. He shared that the global expansion strategy of Under500 focuses on “building healthier communities to combat the regional and global epidemic of obesity and other health issues.”
“We seek to cater to our customers in their quest to adopt a more health-conscious approach, keeping in mind their nutritional requirements,” adds co-founder Fadi Ghaly. “The menu is diverse, with raw, gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, high-protein and low-carb options to choose from.”
The opening of new franchised Under500 locations across the MENA region will be announced soon.
