The burgeoning requirement for beverages, frozen foods, and ready-to-eat food items is fueling the sales of commercial 
refrigeration equipment in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. In addition to this, the surging disposable income of 
the people residing in these countries and the growing popularity of western lifestyles are boosting the consumption of 
ready-to-eat food items and frozen foods, especially among the middle-class people of the developing nations such as 
Oman, Egypt, and the U.A.E. 
This rapidly changing food consumption trend is being caused due to the expansion of food and restaurant chains, 
hypermarkets, and supermarkets in the region. The increasing number of restaurants and food outlets is making the 
unorganized restaurant owners and small grocery retailers upgrade their facilities and infrastructure with various 
advanced electronic appliances such as commercial refrigeration systems. Moreover, this trend is offering numerous 
lucrative growth opportunities to new retail outlets and restaurants. 
The expansion of the retail industry, especially in the Middle East region, on account of the soaring investments being 
made in infrastructural development and construction activities, the acquisition of new brands, and development of strong 
digital platforms is also propelling the demand for commercial refrigeration equipment in the MEA region. Qatar, the 
U.A.E., and Saudi Arabia are predicted to witness huge growth in the organized retail sector in the coming years.
