The sponsorship falls in line with Albaik’s active participation in developmental projects for the country's social and economic growth.

"Our sponsorship of the Riyadh Economic Forum is part of our commitment to working together and supporting the strategies set in place for development," said Rami Abu Ghazaleh, Albaik CEO. 

“The forum's theme this year is all about development with five main sessions from business division support to transportation, food security and so forth,” he added.

"It's a duty for all national companies to work hand in hand with governmental organizations to support its implementation as such. We're pleased to be part of this prestigious event that touches on our key pillars as a national company that's been in the market for almost 40 years," he said.

Supporting its current position in the Kingdom's restaurant industry, Albaik is committed to participating in the communities and neighborhoods it serves through implementing innovative social initiatives.

Saad Al-Mujel, deputy chairman of the board of the Riyadh Chamber of Commerce and Industry and chairman of the forum's board of trustees, welcomed Albaik’s sponsorship of the forum.

He said: "Albaik's participation stems from its leadership role as a unique trademark and the importance put forth in boosting the developmental prevalence for the Kingdom."

Al-Mujel added: "Cultivating an evolving and motivating working environment is a key topic subject this year, and Albaik, is one among other enterprises which, understands the importance of providing a working environment based on the value of teamwork along with high set standards.”

The forum, launched on Saturday, ends on Monday. It aims to create a dialogue between the business community and decision makers to meet and discuss new regulations that could improve all business sectors.
