Nestlé is investing US$120 million in a manufacturing facility in Dubai to produce coffee and culinary products and cater for rising demand throughout the Middle East.
The new facility will be built on a 175,000 square meter plot and will provide employment for 400 people.
The factory will provide fresher products for consumers in the Middle East and better cater for local tastes.
The facility will start producing culinary products at the end of 2015, and coffee products in early 2016.
