Rising Health and Wellness Awareness

Saudi consumers are now placing more importance on health concerns which drives them toward selecting foods that are both nutritious and balanced. Consumers in Saudi Arabia consider vegetable-based soups consisting of lean proteins with whole grains as nutritious meals and snacks. Low-calorie, low-sodium, organic, and additive-free variants are particularly appealing to health-conscious individuals. Brands are also capitalizing on this trend by offering functional soups fortified with vitamins, herbs, and immune-boosting ingredients.

Influence of Western Cuisine and Expat Communities

Saudi Arabia’s diverse expatriate population and growing exposure to international cuisine are shaping consumer tastes. Western-style eating habits—like consuming soup as a meal starter or a quick lunch—are becoming increasingly common. Soups such as creamy mushroom, tomato basil, chicken noodle, and international broths are gaining popularity among both locals and expats. Global foodservice chains and restaurants are also introducing soup varieties that influence consumer preferences. As Saudi Arabia becomes more globalized and open to culinary diversity, this fusion of traditional and Western food preferences is encouraging the acceptance and growth of a broader soup category in the market.
