Dubai firm takes over Meikles Hotel operations

Fidelity Mhlanga ·

DUBAI-based Albwardy Investments will with effect from this Sunday take full control of Meikles Hotel operations after buying the iconic facility for US$20 million.

The deal, which has been on the radar for years, was effectively concluded after more than 70% of shareholders of Meikles Limited backed the resolution relating to the sale of the hotel to Albwardy Investments, at an extra-ordinary general meeting held last December in Harare.
