Habtoor Grand Resort & Spa was recently accredited with the HAZARD ANALYSIS and CRTICAL CONTROL POINT (HACCP) Certification by TUV Middle east, recognizing the Hotel’s compliance with International and Local Food Safety Standards and Practices. This five star hotel, which belongs to Al Habtoor Group, situated on the pristine Jumeirah beach is also a member of preferred hotels and resorts.

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) is based on internationally recognized CODEX standards. It is more than this acronym though it epitomizes the principles of proactive food hygiene, and the integration of food safety into the whole corporate ethos. The system focus on preventing hazards that could cause food borne illnesses by applying science based controls, from raw material receiving to the finished product.

Dr. Sreekumari Ajith, Group Hygiene Officer of The Habtoor Hotels, said, “The accreditation is in recognition of the hotel’s numerous efforts to ensure the highest level and quality of dining experience for the guests. Thanks to overall dedication and hard work of the entire staff and in particular HACCP team members comprising of the General Manager, Executive Chef, Food Safety Officer and his team along with the Department heads. Our Hotel produces safe, good quality food as demanded by our customers. To achieve this we comply with Dubai Municipality legislations and take proactive role in the prevention of complaints by the implementation of HACCP system and associated procedures.”

Total Commitment from our CEO, Mr. Rahim Abu Omar and Guidance from Mr. Warwick Janes, Director of Operations, deserves a special mention.

“Everyone has responsibility for Food Safety. Habtoor hotels will endeavor to provide the means necessary to ensure that all staff members can contribute effectively.” said Mr. Warwick Janes.
