Ikea is scheduled to be opened here but not until December 2010. That was on their website last year. Matalan is also advertised as opening in West Bay in 2010.

mjamille, only if you know somebody on the US base or travel out of Qatar often. Both of which I don't have. Unless you know something that I do not.

If they do manage to sell pork, how long will they be able to continue to do that? 1 month, 1 week, 1/2 a day?

I do not think any of the spinneys will be selling pork in Qatar; the Mall branch will open at least in three months

I heard that the Mall branch almost got permission, then swine flu hit, so now they're back to having to secure it all over again.

BUT I heard another branch is opening at the Pearl, and because they operate under different rules there (a trade free zone or something) that branch of Spinney's WILL have pork on sale.

For what it's worth...

unless they are given permission to do so by the government - not likely IMHO

I was there few days ago, and still no sign of when it is opening. It just says opening soon... ''soon'' in Doha can b a long long time...
