Albaik New branch Madinah location. Gate Number 332-333

AlBaik (Arabic: البيك) is a Saudi fast food restaurant chain headquartered in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia that primarily sells broasted and fried chicken with a variety of sauces. It is the largest restaurant chain in Saudi Arabia.[2][3] Albaik currently has a trade name in 80 countries.[4]
The chain was founded by Shakour Abu Ghazalah, a Palestinian-Saudi entrepreneur, who began selling fried chicken in 1974.[5] The restaurant was located on Old Airport Road in Jeddah.[6] Albaik was registered as a trademark in Saudi Arabia in 1986. In December 2020, Albaik opened two branches in Bahrain, marking the first time the chain expanded outside of Saudi Arabia.[7] Albaik popularized chicken in the fast-food industry, especially in the Muslim world, due to its sale of Halal (permissible) food.[8]
Albaik has more than 40 branches in Jeddah where it is headquartered: ten in Mecca, eight in Medina, two in Buraydah, one in Unaizah, one in Taif, one in Yanbu, twenty in Riyadh, one in Al Qunfudhah, one in Al Lith, Al-Kharj and one in Al-Jubail.[9] Recently, Albaik started expanding further into the central region of Saudi Arabia with two branches opened in Buraidah, and one in Abha and further branches planned for the city, in addition to other main cities in the region.[10] This marked the first time the chain has expanded outside its main service area in Saudi Arabia's western provinces. Albaik was also introduced in Saudi Arabia's South Province, in the city of Jizan in 2016. As of 2019, Albaik is constructing its new branch in Al Baha[11] and currently has over 120 locations.[12]
