ABOUT NAKHATI

Nakhati – Flavours of Empowerment in Riyadh

Nakhati, launched by Kerten Hospitality, is an avant-garde gelato brand rooted in Riyadh but with eyes set on global horizons. It’s more than a ‘Gelato Sweetery’ – it’s a movement, an expression of artisanal elegance and cultural richness, weaving the tapestries of local flavours into every scoop. Inspired by the rich culinary traditions of the KSA and imbued with international flair, Nakhati offers an array of handcrafted gelatos boasting local ingredients and flavours, like Karak tea, rose, dates, honey, nuts, and saffron. But there's more than what meets the eye. Nakhati isn't just about the sweet, decadent swirls of gelato; it’s a testament to female empowerment. Each Nakhati store is not just a space but a platform, a stage where female entrepreneurs blossom, where the hurdles to business ownership dissipate, replaced by community, mentorship, and unwavering support. Backed by prominent financial institutions, Nakhati isn’t just selling gelato – it’s weaving a narrative of empowerment, one scoop at a time, turning every store into a social hub of creativity, innovation, and unity. Every Nakhati store is a chapter in this unfolding narrative, a blend of culture, tradition, and progressive strides, a dance of flavours that isn’t just tasted but felt, experienced, and lived.
