When was your company established?

How many people are employed by your company?

We serve the entire United Arab Emirates, surrounding GCC countries and exclusive hotel resorts in the Maldives and Seychelles, while we have just started delivering to Mauritius.

What’s your company vision?

Our vision in the coming years is to solidify our position as the leading supplier of personalised food stuff packages, minibar products and custom developed bar mixes throughout the GCC region. We are also developing new sections in our company which will expand our operations and services.

What are your core products/services for the hospitality industry?

Our portfolio includes mini bar products, bar snacks, fresh olives, gifts, amenities and personalised packed products. Some of our products also include mixed nuts and sweet jars, relief and sanitary items and high quality slow cooked crisps.

What is your best selling product or service?

There is no one product that stands out as best-seller for the company, simply because we customise more than just the packaging, we also make-to-order its contents. However, our special nut mixes are sought-after.

What new products has your company launched in the last 12 months?

Recently, we entered the Gourmet Olive Market,which is our new business offering in the UAE and greater GCC. We are continually working on ensuring our products are free from pesticides. In a bid to reduce carbon emissions we are switching to handpicking the raw items. The Gourmet Olive Market can supply a huge variety of stuffed, aromatised olives and antipastis throughout the UAE.

What new supply or service contracts have you won in the past year?

In the past year we were awarded the contract to supply to all Rotana hotels. We are also currently re-negotiating contracts with Emirates airline and Emaar.

What do you offer your customers above and beyond their expectations?

We offer a level of service that is not matched by anyone else in our sector. We provide our buyers with advice on the various facets of the product, its contents and its packaging. Then, we also provide recomendations on presentation and storage.
