Pineapple the Symbol of Hospitality
Christopher Columbus, in November of 1493, on his voyage to the Caribbean region, went ashore to inspect a deserted Carib village. That day, European sailors discovered an exotic fruit and called it “Pineapple”. They enjoyed the fruits with a unique aroma and sweetness. The pinecone exterior and apple pulp interior gives it the name ‘Pineapple’.
Dinner hostess would have pineapples adorn dining tables for important events, this said as much about their rank in society as it did about their ingenuity. These beautiful fruits were in such high demand, but so hard to get, that colonial confectioners would often rent them to households by the day.
Legend has it, that sea captains, after work, would head home, stopping outside his house to spear a pineapple on a fence post. This would let friends know of his safe return from sea. The pineapple was an invitation for them to visit, share his food and drink, and listen to tales of his voyage.
Today, ‘The Pineapple’ is synonymous with Hospitality, welcoming guests to experience unique hospitality.

EHH - Dubai Campus
The strategic decision to establish an EHH campus in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE) comes from the fact that Dubai has successfully established itself as one of the worlds leading tourism destinations. This in turn is the result of the vision of the Ruler of Dubai, His Highness (HH) Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, to make Dubai one of the leading global tourism destinations offering visitors a SAFE holiday experience along with a wide range of options for entertainment, shopping, leisure or a combination of business and pleasure.
Dubai’s success stories and innovative mindset has resulted in attracting all of the prestigious International Hotel Brands (e.g. J.W. Marriott, Hyatt Hotels, Le Meridien, Sofitel Hotels, Radisson Blue, Kempinski Hotels, etc.) while at the same time encouraging the development and establishment of successful local brands (e.g. Rotana Group of Hotels, The Address, etc.). The city also currently hosts the world’s tallest tower, the “ Burj Khalifa”, part of the chain of luxury hotel brands such as Armani, Palazzo Versace, Atlantis and including the world-renowned and iconic hotel, “Burj Al Arab”, just to name a few. Along with this is an equally impressive list of 3-4 Star hotels, Boutique hotels, Business Hotels, Tour operators and various hospitality organizations currently operating in the City.
Dubai achieved a new milestone by successfully bidding for and winning the right to host the International EXPO 2020. To prepare for this, Dubai has embarked in a massive hotel and hospitality infrastructure and building project literally worth billions of dollars. This will result in the construction of hundreds of new hotels. Currently, there are already over 500 hotels in Dubai alone with another close to 300 hotels being built for the EXPO 2020 event.
In its desire to become not only the leading tourist hub in the Middle East and in the world, Dubai continues to demonstrate a strong, visionary and progressive spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship. At the same time, this will require that Dubai “GROW” its own qualified human capital to help sustain this burgeoning hospitality and tourism industry. These along with encouragement from the industry as well as the support and approval of the relevant authorities is what convinced EHH to offer its professional Hospitality and Tourism Education and Training program in this world-class city.
