Riyadh Business Pulse

  • Culture Formal and traditional. Business hours are influenced by prayer times.
  • Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The work week is Sunday to Thursday. Call between 10:00 AM and 1:30 PM. Avoid calling during the five daily prayer times (Salat). Business is highly relational and hierarchical; always address senior decision-makers with appropriate respect and titles.

  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Bulgarians value personal rapport; a warm but professional tone is effective. The tech sector is very globalized and efficient. Punctuality is appreciated. Be prepared for direct and honest communication once trust is established.
