UAE-headquartered supermarket chain Lulu Hypermarket has announced its expansion into Malaysia with the opening of “five new hypermarkets”.

Speaking to just-food today (14 April), a spokesperson for Abu Dhabi’s Emke Group, which owns LuLu Hypermarket, said the group was investing US$200m into expanding across Malaysia.

“We are going to expand our hypermarkets in Malaysia. We already have a regional office there.”

The first store is expected to open this autumn. The spokesperson could not confirm the timeframe over which the remaining stores would open.

The stores will be operated under a joint venture with Malaysia’s Federal Land Development Authority.
