Business Overview
The business is a Palestinian restaurant chain known for its fresh, flavorful falafel and offering a vibrant, authentic Middle Eastern dining experience.
Client base:
Serves over 4,000 customers per month across dine-in, takeaway, and delivery channels. The customer base includes local residents, office workers, students, and tourists, with a strong rate of repeat business due to food quality and service consistency.
Revenue model:
The business operates on a multi-channel revenue model that includes:
Dine-in and takeaway sales.
Online delivery via aggregators (Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem)
Corporate & private event catering.
Seasonal promotions & combo deals.
Promoter experience:
The business is led by a promoter with 3+ years of experience in F&B and restaurant operations, specialising in technology-driven logistics, team management, and scaling concepts in high-traffic areas. The founder’s background has been instrumental in driving operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Product strength & diversification:
While falafel is the core product, the menu has successfully expanded to include shawarma, BBQ, hummus bowls, platters, and seasonal wraps, appealing to a wider range of customers.

We have established strong supplier partnerships, long-term relationships with food delivery platforms, and ongoing collaborations with local event organisers for catering and promotional activities. The brand also maintains a solid presence on social media, contributing to strong organic growth.
Awards & recognition:
The restaurant has received local media coverage and recognition for its authentic Palestinian flavours, and was featured among the top trending street food spots in Dubai (informally ranked via influencers and food bloggers).
Growth outlook:
With a plan to open new branches (3 branches) during peak seasons (October to May), expects a significant increase in revenue and brand value, with momentum driven by high customer retention, word of mouth, and social media visibility.
Certifications:
The company holds a trade license.
Products & Services Overview
Falafel sandwiches (classic & spicy) are the top-selling item at the restaurant, especially popular among office workers, students, and walk-in customers. They’re commonly ordered for quick dine-in or takeaway, particularly during lunch hours and late evenings.
Falafel platters are a favourite for families and groups seeking a more complete meal. These are often enjoyed dine-in or ordered for delivery, especially during lunch and dinner times.
Hummus with falafel & toppings appeals to health-conscious customers and vegetarians. It’s a versatile dish ordered both for dine-in and delivery, and frequently included in catering orders.
Fresh falafel by the piece is a top bulk-seller, especially for large families or events. Customers often pre-order for takeaway or catering to serve at home gatherings.
Seasonal wraps and new items draw repeat customers and social media followers. These limited-time offerings boost sales through dine-in and delivery when promoted.
In addition to falafel, shawarma and BBQ (grilled meat) options are highly popular. These items attract a broader audience looking for heartier meals, and are frequently ordered for both dine-in and delivery. The BBQ platters are especially favoured in family settings and group orders.
In terms of services, dine-in remains a core experience, offering fast-casual Palestinian street food in an authentic setting. Takeaway and pickup are heavily used during peak hours, while delivery via apps like Talabat and Deliveroo sees high demand in evenings and weekends. Additionally, catering is growing, with orders from corporates and families for special occasions.
Assets Overview
Tangible assets:
All physical assets across the operating branches, including but not limited to restaurant furniture, kitchen equipment, POS systems, interior fit-outs, branding materials, signage, and decor elements, are fully owned by the company under the legal trade license.

Each branch is outfitted with commercial-grade kitchen equipment (grills, fryers, refrigerators, exhaust systems), custom-built service counters, dining furniture, delivery packing stations, and other operating essentials. Asset purchases were made directly by the shareholders and are recorded under company capital.
