The watch store chain Hour Choice plans to launch five new shops this year in the Middle East, bringing the chain’s total number of shops to 35. The chain has locations across the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman.
The latest Hour Choice outlet opened this week in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), in the new Sharjah City Center. The 500 square foot shop carries 15 international watch brands including Anne Klein, Sekonda, Dolce & Gabbana, Timex, Citizen and Kenneth Cole.
Hour Choice plans to open a new outlet in the Emkay Group’s Al-Falah Plaza next month as well as a location in the Sharjah Mega Mall. Another four stores will open before the end of this year in Manama, Muscat, Fujairah and Doha.
The Rivoli Group launched Hour Choice in February 1999. Rivoli is one of the largest importers and retailers of luxury brands in the Middle East offering a wide range of product categories from watches and writing instruments to menswear, accessories, gift items and eyewear. — (Mena Report)
