APPOINTMENT: Experienced catering
equipment professional Sam Bahsoun has
joined the Charvet Export team to repre-
sent the company in the Gulf States.
Managing director of Charvet’s sister
company in Africa, Sam Bahsoun has more
than a decade’s experience working with
Charvet and dealing with many projects

for hotel chains and brands, independent

hotels and restaurants throughout Africa.

Speaking about the appointment, Wayne

Cuomo, managing director, Charvet

Premier Ranges and head of the Charvet

Export office, said: “The UK based Charvet

Export team will continue to deal with

quotes and prepare drawings, but you need

to be as close as possible to your customers

to understand precisely what they expect

from the product and how they want to

work with their chosen manufacturer.”

A brand of heavy-duty kitchen equip-

ment, Charvet has worked with Middle

East caterers for more than 25 years,

thanks in particular to the efforts of the

late Charvet CEO, Pierre-Alain Augag-

neur, who personally relocated to Dubai

for several years to emphasize the im-

portance of the Middle-East to Charvet’s

future development.

Speaking about his appointment,

Bahsoun said: “This [the Middle East]

market will continue to expand with new

development, while the older hotels and

restaurants will mature and refresh their

offers. We have a strong platform to build

on the strengths of the Charvet brand

and I am looking forward to developing

many more projects, working alongside

the enthusiastic Charvet team and our

consultant and distributor partners and

friends in the region.”
