Unicharm: The First Hygiene Company to Celebrate Father's Day in the GCC

Syyaha22-06-2025
Unicharm achieved a milestone by becoming the first hygiene manufacturer in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region to officially celebrate Father's Day. This pioneering move not only reflects the company's deep commitment to family values but also highlights the evolving cultural landscape where fathers are increasingly recognized for their essential role in raising children.At the heart of this groundbreaking celebration is BabyJoy, Unicharm's flagship diaper brand, which holds the title of the #1 brand in the GCC. BabyJoy is not only a symbol of superior quality and innovation in baby care, but it also stands out as a brand that understands and supports the emotional journey of parenting. As the official sponsor of this special Father's Day campaign, BabyJoy is bringing dads into the spotlight with a heartwarming tribute.The campaign's emotional core is amplified by the iconic song 'Ya Tayyib Al-Qalb' by the legendary Saudi artist Abdul Majeed Abdullah. Known for its touching lyrics and deep emotional resonance, the song perfectly captures the spirit of fatherhood – a blend of kindness, strength, and unconditional love. Through this campaign, Unicharm and BabyJoy aim to honor fathers across the GCC who give their all for their families with patience, sacrifice, and joy.
By leading this initiative, Unicharm is not only celebrating fathers, but also setting a new standard for corporate social engagement in the hygiene industry. It's a bold and heartfelt gesture that reaffirms Unicharm's role as a brand deeply rooted in the region's values – one that truly understands the meaning of family.

New Golf Course to Boost Saudi Arabia's Sports

Saudi Arabia's upcoming entertainment and sports city, Qiddiya, has unveiled plans for an 18-hole golf course designed by English golfer Sir Nick Faldo. The course, set along the 200-meter-high cliffs of the Tuwaiq Mountains, is part of Qiddiya's broader push to develop golf infrastructure in the Kingdom, the Saudi Press Agency reported. The announcement follows Qiddiya's new global partnership with the Faldo Series, regarded as the world's leading development pathway for young golfers. The partnership aims to grow the sport in Saudi Arabia and expand youth participation nationally and internationally, the SPA added. Faldo called the partnership a unique opportunity to help shape one of the world's most ambitious cities, where modern lifestyles blend with sports, entertainment, and culture in an innovative urban model. He said: 'The collaboration with Qiddiya City brings together one of the world's foremost sporting communities and a vibrant society passionate about discovering new sports experiences.' The project aligns with Qiddiya's long-term vision to become a premier golf destination in Saudi Arabia, welcoming players of all ages and supporting the next generation of Saudi golfers. Abdullah Al-Dawood, managing director of Qiddiya Investment Co., said: 'Our partnership with Sir Nick Faldo to design a new golf course, along with becoming the global partner of the Faldo Series, affirms our commitment to supporting golf and nurturing the next generation of Saudi golfers.' The course will offer a variety of playing options and accommodate all skill levels. Alongside a layout designed to challenge professionals, it will feature evening lighting for night play and structured training programs for beginners. The design blends traditional elements with contemporary, inclusive features to broaden participation. The larger golf destination will include a clubhouse, extensive training grounds, and an advanced academy developed by Patterson Design. These facilities are tailored to the desert environment, emphasizing sustainability and alignment with global golf standards. Beyond the sport itself, the site is envisioned as a community hub, featuring fitness and wellness centers, social spaces, indoor and outdoor pools, and a variety of restaurants and cafes. At the heart of the site, a green-covered structure open to the public will host events and serve as a central gathering space. It will connect the golf club, the multi-use sports and social complex, and the training academy, creating a unified destination for recreation, learning, and community activity. This distinctive architectural centerpiece will link the three key areas: the golf club as the operational core, a sports and social activity center, and an academy focused on high-level golf instruction and training. Qiddiya City includes more than 20 master-planned districts focused on entertainment, sports, and culture, along with housing, commercial, and hospitality offerings. The golf project joins several other high-profile developments under the Qiddiya umbrella, including the Prince Mohammed bin Salman Stadium — expected to host global sports and entertainment events such as the 2034 FIFA World Cup — the Speed Park motorsports venue, Mercedes-AMG World with public racing experiences, and the Performing Arts Center, which will support diverse cultural and creative programming.

Saudi Arabia Issues New Regulations

The Ministry of Municipalities and Housing has issued a set of new regulations to organize the operations of fine dining restaurants in Saudi Arabia, as part of efforts to attract investment and enhance the business environment in the hospitality sector. Under the updated rules, high-end restaurants must now provide a full table service experience, including welcoming guests from the entrance to their table and offering valet parking. The regulations also include a dress code policy and prohibit the presence of visible cashier counters. Drive-thru services are strictly banned at fine dining establishments, as the ministry emphasized that the overall 'experience' is central to luxury dining and cannot be delivered through fast service or exterior windows. Restaurants must also implement a digital reservation system, provide visible beverage preparation stations, and maintain a complaint submission channel. Menus are required to feature at least three main categories — appetizers, main courses, and desserts — with no fewer than five items in total. Additional mandatory standards include employing a certified food health and safety specialist, providing coat hangers and bag holders, and allocating a concealed area for pickup orders from delivery apps—ensuring it is not visible to guests. The regulations also limit restaurant chains to just one branch per city to preserve exclusivity and brand distinction. All fine dining establishments are required to have their brand trademarks registered with the appropriate Saudi authorities to ensure legal protection of their visual identity and enhance local and global recognition. The ministry noted that these measures aim to uphold the highest levels of hospitality and ensure a distinct customer journey aligned with the Kingdom's broader goals to boost tourism and lifestyle offerings.
