He noted that the food and beverage sector is one of the largest economic sectors in the Kingdom, encompassing a wide array of businesses and ventures.
He remarked, “Investment in the hotel and restaurant sector in our region amounts to $53 billion and continues to grow annually, driven by population expansion and rising individual incomes, alongside government support for major tourism, entertainment, and shopping initiatives.”

He stated, “Noto is committed to redefining the dining experience and appealing to the refined tastes of both residents and tourists who appreciate the rich culture and cuisine of Italy.
