Watch out for your waistlines – McDonald’s is supersizing its retail offering in the UAE.

Its Middle Eastern franchisee, Emirates Fast Food, is set to open 11 new stores across the country.

The move will increase the company’s UAE workforce by 19 per cent, while lifting the total number of McDonald’s outlets in the country to 119.
