Good morning, wonderful people. <\/strong>It\u2019s one of the slowest mornings for news that we can remember \u2014 slow even by the standards of a Monday. You can expect things to pick up today as we slide toward the Founding Day long weekend (and as the countdown to Ramadan is now below the three-week mark). <\/p>\n

A programming note before we get underway this morning: <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a> We are delighted to welcome our friends at <\/strong>Cenomi<\/a><\/strong> as our first pillar advertiser of <\/strong>EnterpriseAM Saudi. <\/strong>Readers in the Kingdom will need no introduction to Cenomi: It is Saudi\u2019s largest fully integrated retail and shopping center player whose vibrant destinations connect consumers to international brands, in store and online. Who among us hasn\u2019t walked Cenomi\u2019s wide hallways with friends and families on a scorching day? <\/p>\n

Longtime Enterprise readers know we love nothing more than an entrepreneurial <\/strong>success story<\/strong>, and that\u2019s Cenomi in a nutshell. Cenomi traces its roots to 1990, when Fawaz Alhokair and his brothers Abdulmajid and Salman opened two menswear stores in Riyadh. In the years since, the company has grown to become a leading international retail and shopping center player and the gateway to the Kingdom for major global brands including Inditex, Apple, Decathlon, Subway, as well as a host of home-grown entries.<\/p>\n

Tadawul-listed Cenomi is a proud standard bearer for the Saudi business community in <\/strong>global markets. <\/strong>In addition to representing more than 90 leading brands in the Kingdom, Cenomi Retail is a player in 10 countries across the Middle East and CIS.<\/p>\n

Cenomi Centers has 22 assets with some 5k stores in 10 cities across the Kingdom<\/strong>, including the iconic lifestyle centers Mall of Arabia Jeddah and Nakheel Mall Riyadh. Cenomi\u2019s portfolio also includes our friends at Marakez, the leading mixed-used developer in Egypt with District 5 and the Mall of Arabia, among other destinations.<\/p>\n

Cenomi walks the walk when it comes to innovation, too: <\/strong>Already the largest owner, developer, and operator of shopping centers and complexes in the Kingdom, Cenomi aims to open in 2025 Jawharat Riyadh and Jawharat Jeddah \u2014 destinations that will offer \u201clifestyle experiences in partnership with some of the world\u2019s most iconic brands\u201d and aim to once again redefine retail in the Kingdom. <\/p>\n

From Saudi Arabia to the UAE, Egypt, and the region\u2019s climate and logistics markets, Enterprise <\/strong>is available without charge <\/strong>thanks to the generous support of our advertisers. We hope you\u2019ll join us in thanking Cenomi for making this possible. <\/p>\n
