A firm favorite globally, the arrival of the inaugural store in Al Nakheel Mall Riyadh this month is a testament to Alhokair’s dedication to introducing coveted concepts to the people of the Kingdom, enriching the local shopping experience with handpicked international offerings.”

Since the first store opened in Copenhagen in 1988, the variety retail concept has grown to almost 900 shops worldwide. Flying Tiger Copenhagen has a strong focus on uniqueness, product relevance and sustainability.

Good and affordable design combined with a unique shopping experience is at the very core of the business. Moreover, Flying Tiger Copenhagen remains committed to respecting ethical, environmental, and social standards across its entire value chain.
