Emirati Sheikha Hussein Ghanim Aal Ali is first female franchise owner to operate 7th outlet in UAE

Sheikh Mohammed Bin Humaid Al Qassimi led the inauguration ceremony of the second Café Barbera outlet in Ras Al Khaimah recently. Located in the emirate's Corniche Al Quasim area, the new branch is also the 7th Café Barbera outlet in the UAE. The new branch is owned and operated by Sheikha Hussein Ghanim Aal Ali, who was specially trained by a Cafe Barbera trainer to understand the operation, system of management, coffee recipes and other Cafe Barbera standards.

The new outlet, which offers a grand view of the sea, showcases a multiple range of coffees and Italian dishes along with homemade desserts and pastries that Cafe Barbera is known for. Some of the key features of the new outlet are its beautiful interiors, which have been designed according to the Cafe Barbera theme--throwing the spotlight on unique wood furniture and red paint in the wall. The tables were designed by Sheikha herself, making use of coffee beans spread widely on the wooden table and covered with glass.

"We would like to thank Sheikh Mohammed Bin Humaid Al Qassimi for gracing us with his presence and for leading the inauguration of this new Café Barbera outlet," said Sheikha Hussein Ghanim Aal Ali, owner. "We are very proud of this new branch, which promises to bring Café Barbera's signature line of coffee drinks, desserts and pastries. Strategically located by the Corniche, it is the best place to relax after a day of work or if you want to enjoy the company of friends--enjoying coffee that is accompanied with a stunning view of the ocean."

"We welcome the opening of this new Café Barbera branch--our second in RAK and the seventh in the UAE. This new outlet demonstrates the growing popularity of the Café Barbera brand in the UAE. New franchise owners like Sheikha Hussein Ghanim Aal Ali received key training from our experts so that they can continue to bring our promise of good coffee, delicious food and excellent service to our growing number of customers in the country," concluded Sufyan Al Muhaisen, CEO and Co-Founder, BIS Group and Café Barbera.
