In Saudi Arabia, the cloud kitchen market was valued at $157 million in 2020 and is projected to reach $335.7 million by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. Similarly, dark stores—dedicated fulfillment centers for online grocery and food orders—are enhancing delivery speed and service reliability. These innovations align with the Kingdom's Vision 2030 goals, fostering a more digital and efficient food service ecosystem.

The Saudi Arabia Online Food Ordering and Delivery market is primarily driven by diverse culinary preferences. The Kingdom's multicultural population, comprising both locals and expatriates, has led to a high demand for a wide variety of cuisines, ranging from traditional Arabic dishes to international options such as Indian, Asian, American, and fast food. This diversity in tastes encourages food delivery platforms and restaurants to offer expansive menus catering to various dietary preferences, including vegan, halal, and gluten-free options. Also, evolving consumer trends toward healthier eating and customized meal choices are pushing restaurants to innovate and adapt their offerings. As consumers become more health-conscious, food delivery platforms are increasingly providing more diverse and nutritious options, further driving growth in the sector.
