Burgan Bank Sponsors 11th Edition of HORECA Kuwait

In its latest endeavor of community support, Burgan Bank took part in the 11th edition of HORECA Kuwait, in partnership with Ooredoo, as a diamond sponsor. The three-day exhibition, which took place at the Kuwait International Fairgrounds between March 6-8, is acclaimed as Kuwait’s top event for hospitality and foodservice industries – one of Kuwait’s fastest-growing markets.

The exhibition kicked off with a ceremonial opening that was attended by numerous dignitaries and esteemed guests including ambassadors and executive management members. Rising back to its pre-COVID success, the 11th edition of HORECA Kuwait saw the participation of over 500 exhibitors, sponsors, chefs, and housekeepers, in addition to more than 8,000 visitors. 

In light of Burgan’s sponsorship of the exhibition, Mr. Saket Jajoo, Head of Cards at Burgan Bank, commented: “We are delighted to be part of a quintessential hospitality exhibition like HORECA Kuwait, a true hallmark of Kuwaiti excellence and national pride. At Burgan Bank, we firmly believe that our success cannot be separated from the community’s success across its various markets and industries.”

Jajoo further noted: “Today, Kuwaiti hospitality, as well as food and beverage markets, are regionally recognized for their global competitiveness and distinction, putting Kuwait on the list of noteworthy destinations for the memorable experience it promises. Our support of national events such as HORECA Kuwait is one of our multiple efforts in contributing to the growth and support of the domestic economy.”

The three-day exhibition hosted a series of events including keynote speeches, competitions, and a hospitality culinary show, featuring some of the most celebrated chefs and baristas locally, regionally, and internationally. Visitors and exhibitors were able to network and explore endless opportunities for their F&B and hospitality businesses. 

Under the umbrella of its expansive corporate social responsibility program, Burgan Bank remains committed to the endorsement of local events that aim at boosting the national economy and propelling its participants towards success. The Bank continues to ground its philosophy in action through sponsorships, initiatives and events that serve the community.
