Thus, obtaining the ISO 22000 certificate for the entire Food & Beverage team, fully demonstrates our ongoing commitment to giving top priority to the safety of guests and employees. This ISO certification also underscores our excellent position in Saudi Arabia's hospitality industry," concluded Bin Mahfouz.
