Located centrally near the Sohar Intersection, and spread over an area of 500 square metres, Mashhoor is the result of Shahi’s continued efforts to improve customer experience in the arena of food and spices.

Mashhoor is equipped with the latest, top of the class milling technology that has water-cooled grinders to ensure zero percent loss in flavour and nutrients, enabling customers to get the perfect blend with its authentic aroma intact. Customers can also blend spices and grains as per their requirement.
Shahi has the Middle East’s largest coffee processing facility and produces the best kahwa blends in the region. At Mashhoor, coffee aficionados can custom roast and blend their favourite coffee. Choose from the range of top-grade coffee beans sourced by Shahi from major coffee producing countries in the world. The store provides some of the best blends of coffee by Shahi, moreover, the beans can be roasted to the customer preference – light roast, dark roast, extra dark roast, fine powder or coarse powder. And get it blended with spices like cardamom, saffron, cloves, and cinnamon.
Mashhoor also stores the whole range of Shahi products – spices, pulses, lentils, nuts, dates and dried fruits – premium quality meats and poultry products, confectioneries, beverages and other general grocery items.
