In 2000, the first Lulu Hypermarket store was opened in Dubai. With this
launch, the Group embarked on an aggressive expansion plan. It soon grew
into a chain with several outlets across the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Kingdom of
Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, and Yemen. On March 10, 2013, LuLu
Hypermarket was opened in Kochi, India at LuLu Mall. It is one of Asias
largest shopping malls.[3][4][5]
The Group that follows the tagline "LuLu, where the world comes to shop" is
hailed as a one-stop-shop for the multi-ethnic community of the region with
an international mix of products.
Operations[edit]

As of 2015, there are 114 LuLu Hypermarkets in the GCC countries and one in
India at Kochi, Kerala.[6]
International[edit]
In April 2013, LuLu Group launched its operations in the UK at Birmingham
with the inauguration of a logistics and packaging centre under the name, Y
International. The 20,000 sq. ft. facility procures and exports food, non-food,
chilled and frozen products of British origin to LuLu Hypermarkets spread
across the Gulf countries. Date coding and labeling for different countries,
translation of labels, Halal and other relevant certifications are also carried
out here. About 60 British nationals are employed at the facility which hopes
to create 200 jobs soon.[7] In May 2014, following the visit of Prime Minister
Najib Razak to United Arab Emirates, a memorandum of understanding
between Lulu Hypermarket and the Federal Land Development Authority
(FELDA) was signed for the establishment of ten Lulu Hypermarkets in
Malaysia.
