Chipotle Opens Its First Dubai Branch at Jumeirah Beach Residence

Chipotle Mexican Grill has opened its first restaurant in Dubai at Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR).

In partnership with the Alshaya Group, a leading international franchise retail operator, this new restaurant marks Chipotle's debut in the United Arab Emirates, with a second location planned for Dubai Hills Mall.

Chipotle's expansion into the Middle East began in April with a restaurant in The Avenues, Kuwait, which was the company's first new country entry in over a decade. Following that, Alshaya Group opened a second Chipotle restaurant in Kuwait at The Walk Mall in Ardiya.
