Shams Emaar, the corporate social responsibility team of Emaar, will honour workers for their commitment and dedication to building the city, with ‘A Pack to Give Back’ campaign. The initiative is just in time for the preparations for the Holy Month of Ramadan and as part of Shams Emaar’s #BuildingCommunities campaign.

On May 1, the International Labour Day, the Shams Emaar team, which comprises of Emaar employees and led by Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Managing Director of Emaar Properties, will come together to create around 10,000 packs containing numerous essentials – from soaps and shampoos to a cap to shield the workers from the sun, just to name a few.

A portion of the packs will be distributed on May 10 to workers at a select site in Downtown Dubai and over the coming days, the remainder of the packs will be distributed to the workers at remaining Emaar project sites, within the vicinity.

In other initiatives, Shams Emaar has also hosted People of Determination at RISE Dubai Creek Harbour.

Ahmad Al Matrooshi said: “This simple gesture goes a long way for the people who work tirelessly to build our society. We will continue to roll out various #BuildingCommunities initiatives, especially during the Holy Month of Ramadan, to foster stronger bonding with the workers and the community.”

The #BuildingCommunities campaign was launched last year by hosting community Iftars for the varied workforce that supports Emaar and complements the CSR initiatives led by Emaar Foundation.

Emaar’s hospitality and leisure subsidiary has 12 operational hotels and 3 serviced residences in DubaiAnnounced development pipeline of over 35 projects in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, Turkey and The MaldivesPortfolio of 50 hospitality projects – both operational and upcoming – offering more than 25,000 rooms and residencesShowcases diverse portfolio of hotels, serviced¬ residences, leisure clubs and lifestyle dining venues at the Arabian Travel Market 2018
Dubai, UAE; April 22, 2018: Emaar Hospitality Group, the hospitality and leisure business of global developer Emaar Properties, today announced that it has marked a historic milestone of 50 hotel projects in its portfolio, including 35 upcoming projects in the UAE and international markets, as well as 15 hotels and serviced residences that are operational in Dubai.

Announcing the breakthrough evolution of Dubai’s home-grown hospitality company, Olivier Harnisch, Chief Executive Officer of Emaar Hospitality Group, said that several new management agreements are being finalised to be potentially announced during the Arabian Travel Market 2018.

“Since 2007, we have been shaping a new identity and presence in the hospitality scene, and with three distinctive brands, we have now achieved a remarkable milestone in our growth journey of having a robust portfolio of 50 hospitality projects – both operational and upcoming – together offering more than 25,000 rooms and residences. While our primary footprint is the UAE and the Middle East and North Africa region, we are delighted by the response from owners and developers to our hotel concepts, and are expanding to new geographies,” said Harnisch.

Emaar Hospitality Group’s upcoming international projects are in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, Turkey and The Maldives, with new destinations to be added shortly. In the UAE, the Group has expanded its presence from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. “Our ambition is to be one of the world’s most admired and trusted hospitality companies, and with Dubai evolving as a global tourism and business hub, we have earned remarkable brand recognition in global markets that power our onward journey,” said Harnisch.

Three brands, three experiences

With a focus on brand differentiation to drive deep customer personalisation, Emaar Hospitality Group has launched three hotel brands – the premium luxury Address Hotels + Resorts, the upscale lifestyle Vida Hotels and Resorts, and the contemporary midscale Rove Hotels, the latter developed as a joint venture between Emaar Properties and Meraas Holding.

Addressing the media at a press conference held during Arabian Travel Market, Harnisch said that each of the three brands has gained significant traction – and are fast-expanding their footprint to meet the fast needs and aspirations of a fast-changing tourist demographic, especially with a focus on the millennial travellers and new generation of entrepreneurs.

“Across the MENA region, there is a strong focus on economic diversification with tourism and hospitality serving as central pillars of the strategic vision outlined by governments. The UAE Vision 2021 and Saudi Vision 2030, for example, outline the important role that the hospitality sector plays in job creation and in diversifying non-oil revenues. Our strategy is to leverage the growth of the Middle East’s tourism sector, which grew 5 per cent in 2017, by strengthening the hospitality infrastructure and assuring visitors distinctive guest experiences through our hotel projects,” said Harnisch.

A focus on digitisation

The expansion of Emaar Hospitality Group is complemented through higher operational efficiency and a customer-first approach highlighted through an organisation-wide digital transformation strategy. In addition to working with tech-leaders such as Microsoft and Accenture, the Group has launched three digital initiatives that will set industry-firsts.

The first project focuses on bringing seamless service to the guest, ensuring they can check-in/check-out anytime, anywhere. The second leads to the transformation of hotel rooms as intelligent rooms that tunes itself to the preferences of the guest through machine learning and Artificial Intelligence. The third project draws on digital collaterals to free up space in guest rooms and public spaces whereby the Group will introduce digital storage and connected processes to create social spaces for better guest interaction and fun activities.
