Happy Mom... Happy Household...









Have you ever in a situation where you feel really blank…. I mean, you wanted to write something yet nothing comes into your mind but to stare the blank word file in your PC, I was exactly like that a few minutes ago, it feels really really really dumb, 

I thought, I was having that Alzheimer moment, I can’t figure how to overcome, thankfully the music helps me to relieved, it’s a snap, a blink of a light suddenly energize my brain from its deepest state of sleep… 


Hi Everyone, I’m here, it’s been a while isn’t it?? Been busy lately, Kids are growing up so fast and school requires so many projects very now and then, I was literary coping up with all the schedules and work deadlines, I sometimes feel I’m so powerful by completing all the necessary task with a smile on my face. Being a working mom is commitment that challenge you in a lifetime, making all impossible possible!! That’s how super mom do it!!

So how to keep a balance, well, to tell you honestly,  I never had a training or diploma of being a supermom, it’s a task that takes time to learn, I’m a struggling mom before, 

I have no idea that motherhood is like a total transformation from being happy single, but you know what! , I enjoy every single moment of being a mom, all I can say to all mothers out there, try to find that moment for yourself and take advantage of it, ensure you have that time for yourself  and I’m not  saying that you invest so much to it, but keep it at minimal, we often think that we should focus more of our kids and households placing ourselves at the end of the list. 



While I agreed to have that focus for the family, I would strongly consider having that extra moment for yourself by doing the things you love  and learn new things,  motherhood is not just keeping your household clean and perfect, it requires happiness within,  so next you find yourself out shopping with friends or going to gym for a yoga, please don’t feel guilty it is yours to enjoy!! Happy household is a result of happy mom never forget that!!


Peace out!!

ALGHANIM INDUSTRIES TO OPEN WENDY’S IN KUWAIT



Hamburger restaurant will be located on Blajat Street in Salmiya

Kuwait/United Arab Emirates, 11 October 2016: Alghanim Industries and The Wendy’s Company, which last year formed a strategic collaboration to expand the hamburger company across the MENA region, today announced plans to open their first Wendy’s restaurant in Kuwait. The restaurant will open by mid-December on Blajat Street in Salmiya. 

It will be a stand-alone location, able to seat up to 68 inside and 60 outside, open daily from 7am till 3am, with a drive-through and delivery service. 

While this will be Alghanim Industries’ first Wendy's store in Kuwait, the brand is well established in the UAE, with 17 restaurants in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah. In June, Alghanim Industries also announced plans to expand the brand into Saudi Arabia in 2017.

The Wendy’s-Alghanim Industries collaboration has already been an active one, with investment in existing restaurants, new products and policy changes. Alghanim Industries has refurbished four locations and opened three new ones, all in the UAE. Wendy’s has launched new products, conducted intensive staff training and has improved the quality of food and ingredients used, including a move to 100 percent Angus beef for all its burgers.

 The signature Wendy’s burger, Dave’s Hot N Juicy will be renamed to Dave’s Single, Double or Triple depending on size. Finally, Alghanim has increased maternity leave benefits, with an eye to attracting more women to the workplace and making Wendy’s – and Alghanim Industries – a more competitive company.




“After more than a year’s partnership with Wendy’s, this much is clear: people in the MENA region love this restaurant,” said Omar Kutayba Alghanim, CEO of Alghanim Industries. “Our first location in Kuwait – and our broader expansion plans – should be taken as a sign of our commitment to bringing Wendy’s to as many people in Kuwait and across the region as possible. Our customers are clamoring for more restaurant locations, and we are excited to provide them.” 
Bob Wright, Executive Vice President, Chief Operations Officer and International for The Wendy’s Company, said: “We are delighted that the Wendy’s brand will now be in the home country of Alghanim Industries in Kuwait.  We look forward to working closely with the team in Kuwait to grow the Wendy’s brand, bring new jobs to the country and continue to build on our growth in the region.”

Phil Broad, VP of Food and Beverage at Alghanim Industries, said: “We are hugely excited to be opening in Kuwait and enabling our customers to enjoy the great tasting, high quality food and welcoming environment for which Wendy’s is famous.  As with all Wendy’s restaurants our Kuwait operation will use the freshest ingredients and food made to order providing a quality customer experience from start to finish.”   




The Wendy’s Company is a key part of Alghanim Industries’ Food and Beverage portfolio, which launched in 2013 with the acquisition of Costa Coffee in Kuwait. Outside F&B, Alghanim partners with many leading global brands, including American Express, British Petroleum, Colgate-Palmolive, General Motors, Honda, Mars, Mondelez, Philips, Toshiba, Hitachi, and Whirlpool.
