Kreol Travel Retail launches Petit Gourmet’s Dubai Chocolate in Riyadh

Kreol Travel Retail has launched Petit Gourmet’s Pistachio Kunafa Chocolate at Riyadh Duty Free in King Khalid International Airport, in partnership with Lagardère Travel Retail.

The expansion follows a successful debut in Abu Dhabi Duty Free and marks the Saudi travel retail entry for the viral Dubai Chocolate.

The product, a 470g sharing-size bar exclusive to travel retail, blends classic Middle Eastern flavours with a premium, gift-ready format tailored to regional and international travellers.

Petit Gourmet is a brand under Agthia Group, an Abu Dhabi-based food and beverage company. Through Kreol Travel Retail, Agthia’s portfolio is represented exclusively in the travel retail space.

Kreol Group Executive Director, Kreol Arakulath said: “Expanding the Dubai chocolate offering into Riyadh with Lagardère signals a new chapter for homegrown innovation in the region and the first launch for our bars in Saudi Travel Retail.

“The success of our launch in Abu Dhabi showed the demand for thoughtfully executed local flavours in travel retail in reimagined formats. We’re delighted to now bring that same elevated experience to Saudi travellers.”

Lagardère Travel Retail Saudi Arabia CEO, Melanie Guilldou said: “Partnering with the Kreol team to introduce Petit Gourmet’s standout chocolate to Riyadh Duty Free reflects our commitment to showcasing regional excellence.

“This launch sets the stage for a new wave of destination-driven products that surprise and delight our passengers.”
