Manama, Bahrain. 22 March 2022 - Kitopi, the world’s leading tech-powered multi-brand restaurant, announces the launch of three cloud kitchens and a central production facility in Bahrain.

Kitopi Bahrain began operations in October 2021 through its portfolio of invested brands consisting of well-known local and regional food brands Boxit, Eet Fresh, Tacos & Burritos, What Noodles, Prept, Urban Slice, Re-Doh and Live Healthy.

Following its operations launch, Kitopi has now launched its purpose-built, tech-powered cloud kitchens in Adliya, Seef Mall - Muharraq, and Hamad Town, along with its state-of-the-art central kitchen production facility in Bu Quwah, and brought a further six regional favorites - Luca, Tawook Nation, OG Sliders, Japang, Vigilante, and Lotsa Lazy Cake - to residents of Bahrain. With the launch of its cloud kitchens, Kitopi is set to bring more international and regional favorites to Bahrain, including international brand iHOP and regional favorites Right Bite, Zaroob, and Ichiban.

Founded in Dubai, UAE in January 2018, Kitopi set out to bring the best F&B brands to customers on demand, while helping brands scale and expand across borders with minimal capital expenditures and operating expenses. Kitopi leverages its proprietary in-house technology to cook multiple brands in one single kitchen, taking care of the entire operations process- from supply chain and staff training to food preparation and delivery, to customer experience. From an initial focus on on-demand food delivery, Kitopi has since expanded its offerings to include meal plans and more-recently, dine-in concepts.

On the launch of Kitopi’s first purpose-built cloud kitchens in the country, Kitopi’s Managing Director of Bahrain, Martin Perrin comments, ‘With a mission is to satisfy the world’s appetite, Kitopi is always striving to bring the best brands to customers while constantly expanding our reach, and Bahrain is the perfect market for us to do that. We are incredibly excited to be bringing the Kitopi concept to Bahrain - where the opportunity lies not only in the new dining experiences we can offer customers, but in the many ways we can help local brands grow. With industry-leading, tech-powered kitchens that are strategically placed over the island, we are well-placed to be a game-changer in serving up Bahrain's appetite- while promising the highest level of quality, food safety, and overall consumer experience. With just a few months into our journey here, there is no doubt that more will be in store for Bahrain in the near future.’
