Moroccan private healthcare group Akdital has acquired Al Bishri Hospital in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, according to an announcement on September 22, 2026. The acquisition marks Akdital's first expansion outside Morocco and its entry into the Saudi healthcare market.
Al Bishri Hospital is a private medical facility located in Mecca. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Akdital operates a network of clinics and hospitals across Morocco, and this move aligns with its strategy to grow internationally.
The acquisition is subject to regulatory approvals in Saudi Arabia. Once completed, Akdital plans to integrate the hospital into its operations and potentially upgrade its services. The group has not provided a timeline for the completion of the transaction.
This expansion reflects the growing interest of Moroccan companies in the Gulf region and the broader trend of cross-border healthcare investments. Akdital's entry into Saudi Arabia could pave the way for further collaborations in the Middle East.
