Apple to launch online store, flagship stores in Saudi Arabia

It will also open its first flagship retail stores in the country in 2026.

Apple has announced plans to expand in Saudi Arabia, starting with the launch of the Apple Store online in 2025.

The online store will offer customers access to Apple’s full range of products with service and support in Arabic for the first time.

In 2026, Apple will open its first flagship retail stores in the country, including a landmark store at Diriyah, a UNESCO World Heritage site. These stores will provide customers with in-person access to Apple’s products, services, and expert team members.

Apple’s expansion builds on its existing presence in Saudi Arabia, including the Apple Developer Academy in Riyadh, which opened in 2021 in partnership with the Saudi government, Tuwaiq Academy, and Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University.
