We’ve partnered with Eurocoffee to bring quality bottleless water dispensing systems to hotels, offices, and other businesses in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
The UAE is a growth market for bottleless water dispensers. Like many countries around the world, the UAE is facing a plastic waste crisis with around three billion plastic bottles used every year.
The campaign against single-use plastics is gathering momentum in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Last month, Dubai airport banned all single-use plastics including water bottles, drinking straws, packaging, and polythene bags. Dubai’s hotels are also looking at alternatives such as switching plastic water bottles for glass.
Traditional bottle-fed watercoolers make up almost all of the market in the UAE. Point-of-use water dispensers however account for just 1% of the market. Eurocoffee wanted to partner with a like-minded water distribution business to offer premium point-of-use dispensers to its customers.
“Adding the Borg & Overström range to our offering has been an excellent experience, the team at Borg & Overström has gone above and beyond in providing support material, and has provided outstanding help in setting up our dealership here in Dubai, we are looking forward to a long-standing business relationship.” – Roshan Galani, Marketing Executive, Eurocoffee
Eurocoffee is the UAE’s leading distributor of Lavazza coffee. Among their customer base are a number of Dubai’s high-end hotels and offices. Water is key to further growth in 2020 and is expected to become a standalone business in 2021.
They will predominantly offer customers the Borg & Overström B4, which is our most versatile model and is designed with a high dispense area to accommodate bottles and jugs.
