How business is done in Saudi Arabia
Population
About 33 million (2023), with a large expatriate workforce (roughly a third to 40%); young, urban and growing, concentrated in Riyadh, Jeddah and the Eastern Province.
Language(s) spoken
Arabic is the official language and central to culture and government; English is widely used in business, especially with expatriates and in the private sector. Arabic localization is important for consumer and government reach.
How business decisions are made
Hierarchical, relationship- and trust-based, with personal rapport, hospitality and patience essential; decisions rest with senior figures and are often extended through consultation. The state is dominant — Vision 2030 is reshaping the economy with heavy government investment, localization ('Saudization' and local-content) rules and large state entities. Incumbents and well-connected local partners are entrenched.
Effective marketing
Conservative but rapidly modernizing and highly digital — among the world's heaviest social-media and YouTube users; mobile-first creative with respect for Islamic values and local customs is essential. Ramadan and Eid are the peak commercial seasons, with National Day rising in prominence.
Similar countries
The other Gulf (GCC) states — the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman — plus the broader Arab and MENA markets, for Arabic-language, relationship-led campaigns.
