Global icon, Cristiano Ronaldo, attended the store opening to show his support

Famed watchmaker, Jacob & Co’s global presence and distribution are experiencing an unprecedented acceleration. On 3 May 2023, the Marque and the Salujain Group hosted a major gala event to celebrate the official opening of the new stunning Jacob & Co. boutique, situated in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Located on Olaya Street, Riyadh’s most prestigious high street and main artery, the 220 square meters outlet flanks Akaria Plaza and is now the largest Jacob & Co. boutique in the world. In a grand launch, global football icon, Cristiano Ronaldo was also in attendance, among other famous names, to show his support for the brand.

A Unique Store

The boutique is not tied to a mall, but instead has direct street access and visibility and some visibility that is the rounded window with Jacob & Co.’s  signature star pattern that spans over 40 feet. Opened in partnership with local high jewelry retail specialist Salujain, it ushers a new presence in the Marque’s most crucial markets.

Moreover, Jacob Arabo, Chairman and Founder of Jacob & Co, said, “The Saudi people have a discerning eye for luxury and quality and as we open the doors to our first boutique in Riyadh, we are ready to deliver beyond expectations. It takes a special kind of expertise to understand and explain the unique design of our jewelry, the extremely high quality of the gems we work with and the exhilarating and sophisticated watchmaking we’re now famous for.”

A Business Bond

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is not just a large local market for Jacob & Co. It is a major business area where the response to the creativity and lavishness of Jacob & Co. creations has been overwhelming. Gaining the right foothold, with the right partner, with an adequately grand and large boutique is an indispensable step Jacob & Co. has been working on for a long time.

On top of that, Salujain benefits from a historic and deep presence with the most select circles of Riyadh’s high society. The newly struck partnership promises to accomplish great things in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as is being done throughout the world with an uninterrupted string of Jacob & Co boutique inaugurations.

More Openings To Come

Subsequent 2023 openings are thus planned in Mumbai, Hanoi, Casablanca, Cairo, Amman, Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait, thus bringing the total of Jacob & Co. points of sale to just under 100 worldwide and we can’t wait to see them all open and who will grace these openings with their presence.
