DALLAS, TX , parent company of the 40 year old "Dixie Lee" brand
name, with more than 80 franchised restaurants open, announced
today that it is continuing its international expansion with the
opening of its first Dubai Dixie Lee Chicken & Seafood next
week.
The new restaurant is part of an aggressive expansion in Dubai
and the Middle East. Dave Silvester, Executive Vice President,
stated, "We took our time in training to make sure that our food
and service were consistent to customers' expectations. We have an
international 'cast of characters,' or employees I should say. Our
GM (general manager) Mr. Rizalino Cabauatan is from The
Philippines, and his staff is from several countries within
Southeast Asia. So we have an international staff serving
international customers."
"The photos show the completion of our training courses for our
employees, the store orientation and our outside fa�ade, just
before we open in three weeks," Mr. Silvester added. "Stop by for
some great chicken and first class service." Mr. Silvester and his
Canadian training team will be in Dubai mid-January to assist with
the Grand Opening.
The Dixie Lee Dubai Master Franchisee Mr. Ahmad Nosratabadi is
already negotiating for the second location, and looking for more
in Dubai and the Middle East.
