Meituan Eyeing Saudi Expansion: Seeks Hires for Business Development, User Acquisition, and Customer Retention in Riyadh
Meituan, a Chinese food delivery giant, is looking to expand its business in Saudi Arabia based on job listings for eight positions in Riyadh.
The positions include business development, user acquisition, and customer retention for Meituan's food delivery brand KeeTa.
Meituan did not confirm its expansion plans, but Bloomberg previously reported that the Beijing-based firm would debut in the Middle East with Riyadh as the first stop.
Meituan, a Chinese tech company, entered the Hong Kong market in May 2023 as its first expansion outside of mainland China.
There have been rumors of further expansion, particularly in the Middle East.
During a post-earnings call, Meituan CEO Wang Xing confirmed that the company is evaluating opportunities in new markets.
He expressed confidence in the company's ability to enter a new market and find a successful approach for consumers.
