Teavana, The Cheesecake Factory open in Kuwait

In partnership with the Alshaya group, the first Teavana store has launched in Kuwait. The specialty retailer offers more than 100 varieties of premium looseleaf teas, authentic artisanal teaware and other tea-related merchandise. It is only one of several international stores that opened in The Avenues mall in Kuwait in November as part of franchise operator M.H. Alshaya’s commitment to bring in new retail concepts in the region. The Cheesecake Factory, an award-winning casual dining restaurant in the US, also opened its second outlet at the mall, following its successful launch in Dubai in August. It is expected to open more outlets across the Middle East.
