The F&B leading industry visited the Caterer Awards ceremony at the Park Hyatt Hotel in Dubai Monday night to pick up one of the 15 prestigious trophies. The night was about recognizing the incredible talent, the hard work and dedication of a variety of F&B professionals, outlets and companies across the region.

Our Middle East based office, Royal Culimer, was nominated for the 'Food Supplier of the Year' and 'Best Client Support of the Year' awards. Unfortunately we did not win one of these awards, but we are extremely proud of reaching this achievement.
