The company launched two cloud kitchens in Riyadh located in Sulaymaniyah and Qurtoba which will offer Rebel’s signature brands such as The Messy Burger, Oven Story Pizzas, Fricken’ Fried Chicken and The 500 Calorie Project, the company said in a statement.
This will be closely followed by the launch of Behrouz Biryani, Faasos and Mandarin Oak, which are Rebel’s popular brands in the Indian and Chinese cuisine markets in the Middle East.

Khithani further noted that “we are extremely proud to be India’s first food tech player to enter the Saudi Arabia market. Starting with these two kitchens, we are aiming to build a $100 million food delivery business in the country over the next three years with our cloud kitchen network.”
Rebel Foods currently operates over 45 brands across multiple countries such as India, Indonesia, United Arab Emirates (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah), the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia.
“We aim to add over 60 internet restaurants in Riyadh and will soon expand to other cities in Saudi Arabia such as Jeddah, Dammam and Khobar,” Khithani said.
