Harley-Davidson is set to open its a dealership in Beirut, Lebanon, next month.
The country is estimated to have 800 to 1,000 Harley ownes, who will be able to get parts locally once the dealership opens. It will be the Motor Co.’s first foothold in the Persian Gulf region.
Harley-Davidson opened a showroom in Lebanon more than 70 years ago, but the country lost its dealership 10 years ago, leaving riders to order parts from overseas, according to AME Info.
"The new showroom will offer bikers in the Levant everything they need to maintain their bikes. Advice, parts, latest bikes, services and technical support will be available,” GM Marwan Tarraf says. "The showroom will also serve as a base to run tours and events."
The 10,764-square-foot showroom will include six service bays, Harley-trained mechanics, is scheduled to open in mid-September.
