The Story Behind ADNH Catering
We take great pride in how the story of ADNH Catering is intertwined with the story of the UAE - our home.
Founded by royal decree of His Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan in 1976, Abu Dhabi National Hotels was among the nation’s first established hospitality groups, providing hotels, transport, and catering services to a young country just beginning to welcome the world.
Over the past few decades, that early catering and support services arm evolved into what is now ADNH Catering - a homegrown, dedicated business serving the UAE’s most critical sectors. From defence and corrections to healthcare, education, and business and industry, ADNH Catering has grown not only in capability, but also, in responsibility.
Today, with operations extending into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, ADNH Catering combines deep local and regional heritage with modern concepts, trusted brands, and advanced technology - delivering reliable food and support services at scale across the UAE and the wider Gulf.

Patient Services
Healthcare demands true specialisation. Our healthcare-focused catering and housekeeping teams are trained for clinical environments, operating to rigorous hygiene standards and patient-centred service principles. We support facilities aligned with JCI accreditation standards, ensuring our processes, documentation, food safety systems, and environmental services strengthen clinical governance and quality assurance. Our culinary and nutrition teams collaborate to deliver medically tailored meals that prioritise both nutritional precision and flavour.
Retail and Coffee Shops
We design and operate cafés, grab-and-go outlets, and high-street-style coffee bars that keep people coming back. With our own home-grown brand, Husk, alongside bespoke concepts tailored to your environment, we strike the perfect balance between great coffee, fresh food, and friendly service, all carefully designed to match your footfall, space, and customer profile.
Events
From intimate VIP gatherings to large-scale national events, we deliver seamless catering and hospitality solutions from start to finish. Our expert teams manage every detail - planning, preparation, presentation, and service with precision and professionalism. That means you can focus on your guests, your programme, and the lasting impact of the day, confident that every element behind the scenes is taken care of.
Cleaning & Housekeeping
Through Task+, our dedicated housekeeping and environmental services arm, we keep your spaces clean, safe, and welcoming. From hospital wards and classrooms to offices and accommodation, our teams deliver consistent, high-quality results using world-class routines that are both globally proven and locally tested. Every process is driven by science, compliance, and rigorous standards, ensuring hygienic environments where your people and guests can focus on what they do best.
Hospitality
Our Hospitality teams shape the first and last impression of your sites, delivering warm, professional service across reception, front-of-house, and workplace environments to ensure guests and employees feel welcomed and supported. Under our Task+ offering, we provide integrated office services, including butlers, baristas, meeting room coordination, and workplace support - seamlessly embedded into daily operations to ensure efficiency and consistency behind the scenes. More than service providers, our teams become a natural extension of your organisation: building trusted relationships and embedding into your workplace culture as a familiar and valued presence.
Manpower Supply Services
Our manpower supply services provide reliable, fully vetted professionals across a range of sectors, seniority levels, and technical specialisations. We recruit, train, and manage teams that integrate seamlessly into your operations, supporting peak demand, new openings, and long-term roles with consistency and confidence. With the ability to mobilise high volumes of personnel within industry-leading timeframes, we leverage specialised recruitment networks to source talent efficiently. Our rigorous screening and operational expertise also enable deployment in sensitive, high-security environments, ensuring professionalism, discretion, and full compliance with protocols.
Pest Control
Effective pest control protects your reputation as much as your premises. Through Task+, we combine highly trained technicians, safe and compliant treatments, and proactive monitoring programmes to prevent issues before they arise, and to respond swiftly and discreetly whenever they do.
Fueling Future Minds
Good food helps students concentrate, participate and get more from their day. Through Food Nation, our specialist chef-led education brand, we create school dining experiences that balance nutrition with genuine student appeal. With menus that are additive-free, full of hidden goodness and designed for different age groups, we help schools serve food that parents trust and students actually want to eat.
