Al Habtoor opens hitech catering unit after revamp
DUBAI, July 14, 2016
Al Habtoor Group's Metropolitan Catering reopened this week, following a multi-million dirham revamp which included the rebuild and fit-out of its new state of the art kitchens.
Al Habtoor Group Vice Chairman and CEO Mohammed Al Habtoor inaugurated the facility on July 12 at a ribbon cutting ceremony, following which guests were taken on an exclusive tour.
With an increased capacity enabling an output of up to 45,000 meals per day, the new 18,000 sq ft facilities in the Jebel Ali Free Zone are the largest of their kind in Dubai.
In line with the new facilities, Metropolitan Catering also unveiled a fresh brand identity, which was showcased at this year’s Arabian Travel Market.
Al Habtoor said: “Metropolitan Catering is a fresh and forward thinking company improving in line with the growing demands of Dubai clientele. The recent renovation is a manifestation of the growing a culture of excellence from within to consistently deliver the highest quality of food, service and value.”
Earlier this year, the company also welcomed a new general manager, Ramy El Sayah, who oversees a line-up of over 170 chefs, hospitality professionals and logistics experts.
El Sayah said: “It is a very exciting time for us, we are immensely proud of the new facilities and we’re looking forward to continuing to grow our operation. The investment has elevated Metropolitan Catering to a stand out choice amongst its peers and we’re looking forward to winning new business as a result.” - TradeArabia News Service
