The new restaurants were established through a franchising agreement with Mohamed Makawi, president of Eagles Landing Restaurants LLC. Mr. Makawi also launched IHOP’s first location in the United Arab Emirates.

“This partnership follows the tremendous success of our IHOP opening in Cairo, one of 10 new international IHOP locations opened this year, and our recently announced partnership in the western Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” said Tony Moralejo, president of international and global. – Source: IHOP.
