A
NOTE
TO OUR
READERS
Welcome to the 2014 Autumn Issue of
the Sawalef.
This issue wraps up all the latest
news from around the Al Habtoor
Group including a look at what the
Chairman’s been up to!
As the year draws to a close we say
goodbye to our print copy of the
newsletter and welcome a digital
version.
We love the new digital Sawalef
for several reasons; it’s trendier,
interactive, eco-friendly and comes
alive with video links to highlight
some of the many achievements of
our staff from around the Group. And
most importantly, the new Sawalef is
sharable through social media, email,
etc. So don’t forget to share it with
your friends.
The digital Sawalef will soon be available
on
and on
our corporate website
.
Enjoy!
