Developer Diyar Al Muharraq has kicked off foundation work on the Souq Al Baraha retail development. The Almoayyed Contracting Group has been tasked with completing and launching the project by the first quarter of 2021.

The project is located in the heart of Diyar Al Muharraq city and is expected to boast over 470 retail stores, including shops that sell fresh produce and food items, general household goods, tailors, gold and jewelry shops and traditional Bahraini products ranging from foods to handcrafts.

“It is with great pleasure we announce the laying of foundation for the Souq Al Baraha project, which will be a great and unique addition to Diyar Al Muharraq. The market will include a variety of shopping options, serving the needs of both residents and visitors. The design of Souq Al Baraha will reflect the unique architectural culture of the Kingdom of Bahrain, in line with our eagerness to establish a Bahraini identity throughout various residential and commercial projects in the city. We look forward to establishing Souq Al Baraha through the highest standards and launching it according to the set timetable,” said Ahmed Alammadi, CEO of Diyar Al Muharraq.
