Corporate catering in Abu Dhabi.
Forty years in this city, catering for embassies, institutions, hotels and the offices in between.
The Royal Orchid Group has operated in Abu Dhabi since 1985 and Cater Inc. is its catering division. The corporate work here runs from executive lunches at ADGM to full-day conference catering, embassy functions and high-volume industrial catering for workforces.
The same production facility and the same published rates apply as in Dubai. What changes in Abu Dhabi is proximity: the head office is here, so is the leadership, and Gaurav Varma handles corporate enquiries in the emirate directly.
