Butlers Chocolate Café opens its first outlet in Sahara Centre

Nawwaf Ghobash, Managing Partner of Prime Hospitality, said, "With a successful presence in Ireland, UK and around the world, we are excited to be opening the Butlers Chocolate café in the UAE, and we are confident that the market will welcome this leading brand. We also believe that strategically strong locations as Sahara Centre in Sharjah and Al Wahda Mall in Abu Dhabi will properly introduce the brand to the UAE."

Akram Ammar, General Manager of Sahara Centre, said, "We are thrilled to have Butlers Chocolate among the leading brands hosted at Sahara Centre, and we are sure this addition will enrich our F&B retail mix."

Alongside its award winning range of hot and cold beverages, the cafe will also serve a delicious range of desserts and pastries. Food items, including soups, salads and sandwiches, have been carefully selected for the new café with focus on preparation upon ordering using the highest quality ingredients.

The café will also carry a wide range of gourmet loose and pre-packed Butlers Chocolate assortments in luxurious packaging. These delicious confections are perfect for gift giving at Eid, corporate gifts, weddings and are ideal for everyday occasions such as birthdays and thank you gifts. All of the chocolates on sale are exclusively imported directly from the Butlers factory in Dublin.
