New facility in Dublin Airport Logistics Park to deliver 40,000 quality in-flight meals a day
dnata has commenced operations at its new catering unit in Dublin. The advanced facility quadruples dnata’s catering capacity in the Irish capital, enabling the company to deliver 40,000 quality inflight meals a day for customers.
Covering an area of 6,300sqm, dnata’s new facility is located in the Dublin Airport Logistics Park, near its existing operation. It is equipped with the latest technologies and has a capacity of over 30,000 meals a day.
dnata’s expansion comes as a result of an agreement with Aer Lingus, which sees it now provide inflight catering services to the airline at four airports in Dublin, Shannon, Cork and Belfast.
“We look forward to serving more customers in Dublin, both in the air and on the ground, with a team of highly-experienced culinary professionals,” commented Robin Padgett, Divisional Senior Vice President, Catering, dnata.
dnata’s multi-million Euro investment in Ireland in 2020 has spanned construction, facility fit-out, vehicles and staff training. In addition to its newest unit in Dublin, the company will shortly complete the fit-out of a brand new facility in Shannon and further enhance its operations in Cork.
