Al Raya Supermarket: Locations, Offers & Weekly Promotions
Supermarket — stores, offers, and everything in between
Since 1991, Al Raya has been a fixture of grocery shopping in western Saudi Arabia. Here’s how to find your nearest branch, what to expect on the shelves, and where to check this week’s offers and promotions.
Al Raya at a glance
What is Al Raya?
Al Raya is a Saudi supermarket chain that opened its first branch on 70th Street (Prince Majed Street) in Jeddah in 1991. It was one of the earliest stores in the city to combine a full fresh-produce section, an in-house bakery, and round-the-clock opening hours under one roof — a format that quickly became the template for modern grocery shopping across the western region.
The first Al Raya branch introduces 24-hour service, fresh produce, and a full bakery — a new standard for supermarkets in the city.
Al Raya grows from a single Jeddah branch into a network reaching smaller towns, eventually stretching from Jizan in the south to Tabuk in the north.
Tamimi Markets completes a full acquisition of Al Raya, folding its stores into a combined national portfolio while keeping the Al Raya name on branches.
Inside an Al Raya market
Every Al Raya market is built around the same idea: make daily shopping quick, without giving up on freshness. Shoppers consistently point to a few sections as the reason they keep coming back.
Fresh produce
Daily deliveries of fruit and vegetables are one of the chain’s original signatures, and remain a main draw for shoppers doing a weekly restock.
In-house bakery
Bread and pastries are baked on site through the day, a detail that customer reviews mention more than almost any other department.
Everyday essentials
Dairy, meat, household goods, and health and beauty items round out a full weekly shop under one roof.
Neighborhood format
Most branches are sized for a fast, local trip rather than a destination hypermarket run — convenient over sprawling.
This week’s Al Raya offers and promotions
Al Raya publishes a weekly promotions leaflet covering fresh produce, bakery, and household staples. Offers rotate on a set day each week, so it’s worth checking the current leaflet before you shop rather than relying on last week’s prices.
Produce & bakery
Weekly rotating discounts on fruit, vegetables, and daily bakes.
Household staples
Bundle deals on rice, oil, dairy, and cleaning essentials.
Holiday promotions
Extended leaflets around Ramadan and national holidays.
Open the official weekly leaflet
Check the “Weekly Promotions” section on Al Raya’s official website for the current leaflet and its valid dates.
Compare against your branch
Some promotions are store-specific, so confirm stock and pricing with your nearest branch before making a special trip.
Plan around the refresh day
Leaflets are replaced on a set day each week — shopping just after the refresh gives you the widest selection of active deals.
Finding an Al Raya near me
Al Raya branches are concentrated in western Saudi Arabia, from Jizan up to Tabuk, with Jeddah as the chain’s home city. The fastest way to find the closest one is a map search rather than a fixed list, since branches open and close over time.
Use a live map search
Search “Al Raya supermarket” in Google Maps with location access turned on to see the nearest branch, current opening hours, and turn-by-turn directions.
Checking a specific Al Raya location
Because store hours, phone numbers, and even parking availability can differ from one branch to the next, treat any single address as a starting point rather than the full picture.
Official website
Al Raya’s official site (alraya.com.sa) lists branch information and the current weekly promotions leaflet.
Google Maps listing
Each branch’s Maps listing usually shows verified hours, a phone number, and photos submitted by recent visitors.
Common questions about Al Raya
How do I find an Al Raya near me?
Search “Al Raya supermarket” in Google Maps or the Al Raya website’s store locator with location access enabled. This surfaces the closest branch along with its current hours and directions.
Where can I check the exact Al Raya location and hours for a branch?
The branch’s Google Maps listing and the official Al Raya website both list the exact address, phone number, and daily hours, since these can vary slightly by city and branch.
Where can I see this week’s Al Raya offers and promotions?
The “Weekly Promotions” section of Al Raya’s official website publishes the current leaflet, covering fresh produce, bakery, and household essentials, refreshed on a set day each week.
Is Al Raya still Al Raya after the Tamimi acquisition?
Yes — Tamimi Markets completed a full acquisition of Al Raya in February 2024, but branches have continued operating under the Al Raya name as part of Tamimi’s wider portfolio.
What makes an Al Raya market different from a hypermarket?
Al Raya branches are generally sized for a fast neighborhood shop — fresh produce, a bakery, and daily essentials — rather than the sprawling, destination-style layout of a large hypermarket.
