In 1924, Arthur Rawdon Spinney, a British army officer stationed in Alexandria, Egypt, identified a need in the area for imported food products, planting the seed for what would later be one of the Middle East’s leading supermarket chains.

Spinneys’ Dubai story started in 1961, with our first supermarket opening in Al Nasr Square in 1962. At that time, it was known locally as ‘The Frozen Chicken’ – the only retailer to sell frozen chickens from a chiller van. Such innovation has remained. Spinneys enjoys a well-deserved reputation for forward-thinking, keeping pace with changes in cooking trends and the emergence of new products worldwide.

Today, Spinneys Dubai, owned by UAE national Mr Ali Albwardy, has built a strong name for supplying top quality produce and offering a high level of customer service. Yet food standards, safety and freshness have always been at the forefront of the company’s ethos – just one reason why the Spinneys brand is defined as ‘The fresher experience’. 
In order to maintain customer satisfaction, Spinneys constantly monitors shopping trends and reacts quickly and effectively to customer suggestions and feedback. With in-store bakeries, butcheries and delicatessens, we’re able to deliver not only on the promise of freshness, but variety, too.

As well as supporting local food producers within the UAE, we have also developed an enviably comprehensive network of reputable suppliers around the world. These suppliers – our producers – help us to provide you with the freshest international products on the shelves every day.

Our in-store system is committed to ensuring a hygienic, controlled and safe environment in which every department is well-presented and welcoming with knowledgeable, friendly staff on hand to make your food shopping experience as easy and enjoyable as possible.
