As part of an ongoing global expansion, IFA Hotels & Resorts is opening an office in London which will lead its European operations.Talal Jassim Al-Bahar, Chairman and Managing Director of IFA HR, said, “Many of our current customers reside in the UK and a number of our future projects will be designed to match the international UK investor’s needs. The office will also lead and manage our existing European projects and investments and will explore future investment opportunities.”

“Our first step into Europe was in the mid 80s when we started investing in Portugal through United Investments Portugal, part of the IFA Consortium. Since then, we have expanded across the Middle East and into South Africa, Africa, the Indian Ocean region and most recently the Far East.”

Globally, IFA HR has entered into strategic alliances and joint venture partnerships with leading companies such as Kingdom Hotel Investments (Saudi Arabia), Nakheel (UAE), Istithmar (UAE), United Investments Portugal (Portugal), a strategic alliance with RCI (part of the Cendant Group), Moreland Developments (Pty) Ltd (South Africa), Boschendal Ltd. (South Africa) and most recently Raimon Land (Thailand).

“Our unique product range enables us to cater to our clients and meet their varying property investment and leisure requirements across the globe. The opening of our European office is another step towards providing superior service to the global market place. Being at the centre of this market ensures superior investment opportunities for our clients worldwide” Al-Bahar added.
