This year, California Pizza Kitchen in its 3 branches in the UAE and one in Riyadh, showed outstanding performance in quality and service proving to the mother company in California that they are true brand ambassadors. Our achievements to name a few are: first international franchisee to adapt the next chapter restaurant design and the first international franchisee to adapt the high 5 service procedures. Our plan for 2015, open 3 new stores. The 2015 Palm award, international Franchise partner of the year goes to all CPK staff. The commitment of each and every one individually and as a team made this possible for CPK Middle East and for Gourmet Gulf.
