Juniors Puts Jordan on the Regional Expansion Map with the Opening of Its First Branch in Amman
Venice International Restaurant Management, in partnership with Juniors Qatar, has officially announced the opening of the first branch of the “Juniors” fast-food chain in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. This strategic move reflects the partners’ commitment to reshaping the fast-food sector and strengthening investment opportunities in the local market.

The entry of “Juniors” into Jordan marks the realization of the vision of Venice International Restaurant Management, led by Chairman and Founder Abdullah Al-Hassan, who has utilized the company’s expertise in restaurant operations to bring promising brands to high-potential markets such as Jordan.

Commenting on the opening, Al-Hassan said:
“We are proud to introduce the Qatari brand ‘Juniors’ to the Jordanian market, offering services that meet world-class standards worthy of the Jordanian consumer. This move is a strategic step with significant economic and social dimensions. Our goal is not merely to open new restaurants, but to create real added value by providing employment opportunities for Jordanian youth and increasing reliance on local suppliers. This project reflects our belief in Jordan’s ability to serve as a regional hub for innovative brands and demonstrates our commitment to building partnerships that create sustainable impact in the restaurant and hospitality sector.”

For his part, Abdullah Al-Ansari, Founder and CEO of Juniors, which originated in Qatar, stated:
“Since launching Juniors, our goal has been to offer a different experience that reflects our passion for quality and innovation and leaves our mark on the fast-food industry. Today, as we open our first branch in Jordan, we are not only expanding geographically but bringing our vision to a strategic market we believe in. This step represents a key milestone in our journey to establish Juniors as a leading regional brand that supports local economies and proves that innovative ideas can compete with global chains.”

The opening of the first branch on Queen Rania Al Abdullah Street in Amman marks the beginning of a phased expansion plan in Jordan. A new location in Marka is scheduled to open next month, followed by the flagship branch on Mecca Street at the beginning of next year, which will be the largest and most significant destination for the brand in the Kingdom, solidifying its position as a strong competitor in both the local and regional markets.

The entry of Juniors into Jordan is expected to energize the restaurant sector by generating new job opportunities, increasing demand for local products, boosting competitiveness, and encouraging regional investment in a market considered promising within the hospitality industry. Venice International also plans to expand the brand through multiple development stages, strengthening Jordan’s position as a launchpad for future regional growth.

With the opening of its first branch in Amman, Juniors reinforces the notion that Jordan’s restaurant industry is entering a new phase where economic value and innovation go hand in hand, transforming the fast-food experience into a driver of development and a boost to investor confidence in the local market.
