The story

SACO was established in Riyadh in 1984 by a small group of entrepreneurs. Two decades later, in May 2004, the company set out to open SACO World in Riyadh, the largest, first-of-its-kind store in the Middle East. In June 2010, the company built its second SACO World in the Red Sea port city of Jeddah, and a year after that opened its largest superstore yet in the eastern province of Dhahran.

In 2015, it became a publicly listed company. In 2018, SACO opened its 31st store and, today, it has 34 stores across the country, with plans in the works to build more stores in the coming years.

SACO acquired Medscan Terminal, a Saudi-based logistics service provider, in 2016. Amongst its latest endeavours are the launch of its new website and an e-commerce app.
