data-start=\"111\" data-end=\"178\">London (Pothwar.com \u2014 Mohammad Naseer Raja | 19 March 2026): <\/strong>Abu Bakr Supermarket will open six new UK locations in 2026 and 2027 as part of a \u00a318 million investment in growth, aiming to expand its presence in areas currently without a store.<\/h4>\n<h4>The new stores will create more than 180 jobs nationally, with each location employing between 25 and 35 staff in roles including store assistants, supervisors, cleaners, and store managers.<\/h4>\n<h4>Hamza Hussain, managing director of Abu Bakr Supermarket, said: &#8220;We\u2019ve recognised that there are areas of the UK without an Abu Bakr store, and our expansion is about addressing those gaps.<\/h4>\n<h4>&#8220;We\u2019ve always believed that access to high-quality, affordable food is a right, not a privilege, and that\u2019s why it\u2019s our mission to make this a reality for customers up and down the UK.&#8221;<\/h4>\n<h4>The openings will increase Abu Bakr&#8217;s UK presence from around five stores to a target of 10 or 11, making its range of affordable groceries and halal products accessible to more customers.<\/h4>\n<h4>The retailer also experiences a significant uplift during Ramadan, with customer demand for halal food and essential groceries contributing to an estimated \u00a3144 million in food spending across the period.<\/h4>\n<h4>In addition to its growth plans, Abu Bakr Supermarket runs several community initiatives, including its \u201cAisle of Support\u201d programme, the \u201cHeaven at a Mother\u2019s Feet\u201d campaign honouring mothers, seasonal community events, and its \u201c5 a Day\u201d healthy eating promotion.<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0644\u0646\u062f\u0646
