SSP in the Middle East

We made our first move into the Middle East in 2008 when we began operating at Abu Dhabi International Airport in the UAE. We now operate in 6 countries across the regions: Bahrain, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

We currently manage some well-known franchises including Burger King, O’Leary’s Restaurant, CNN Traveller and Brioche Doree, as well as operating popular SSP brands like Camden Food Co, Caffe Ritazza and Negroni, and home-grown Brands like Jaipur, inspired by Indian cuisine and flavours.
