French-based retail chain Monoprix is set to open at Qatar-based Doha Festival City shopping mall, which is expected to open next February.

The new 7,000m² store is claimed to be the world's largest hypermarket, offering more than 35,000 goods across various local and international brands, which includes organic, fresh items from regional farmers.

The hypermarket also intends to provide different international brands such as those from UK, Spain and Italy, as well as include a new make-up collection from Paris and Milan.

Monoprix Qatar will feature a French bakery, a waffle house and Cave à Fromage, which will offer a wide range of international cheeses.

“We are delighted that Monoprix has entrusted its largest store worldwide to Doha Festival City."

The new store aims to offer better customer experience with restaurants, concept stores, electronic stores and other entertainment options.

Monoprix regional general manager Sebastien Farhat said: “We are delighted to announce our newest and largest outlet, and we want to tell the market to expect something very special from Monoprix, as we widen our footprint in Qatar.
