on

Maldives has launched a marketing campaign in London, showcasing the destination at railway stations and buses.

Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation (MMPRC) said the campaign includes 40 digital advertisements featuring Maldives, displayed on screens at bus stops near busy train stations in London.

According to MMPRC, a digital sign board has been set up at the Waterloo station, one of the busiest railway stations in the UK. With an estimated 94.4 million people passing through the station each year, the digital screen is expected to receive some 3.2 million impressions during the two-week campaign, the official tourism promotion body said.

Maldives has also been vibrantly advertised on The Original Tour buses in London. For the next six months, the buses will showcase the natural beauty of the Maldives.

“We were thrilled to bring the beautiful blue lagoons of the Maldives to London this autumn during the outdoor advertising campaign. The UK is an important and significant market for inbound tourism to the Maldives, so we hope the advertisements have encouraged the city’s busy commuters to consider our beautiful islands as a destination for their next escape,” MMPRC Managing Director Thoyyib Mohamed quoted in a statement, as saying.

The UK is amongst the top 10 source markets for the Maldives’ tourism industry. With a 7.5 per cent marketshare, its ranked as the fifth biggest source market.

Official figures show that 83,089 Brits visited the Maldives from January to August — a 10.5 per cent increase over the same period last year.

Master Baker Steven to conduct IREKS Baking Art & Science training in Maldives

Published

on

The return of IREKS Master Baker to the Maldives brings exciting news for the local baking community.

Kuala Lumpur-based Master Baker – Chef Steven Selvamuthu, will be conducting pro-bono culinary demonstrations and extensive training sessions from 19th August to 7th September, 2023. Bakers and Pastry Chefs in resorts and HORECA institutions can look forward to enhancing their skills and knowledge under his guidance.

Steven’s expertise in pastries, acquired through training in Gelato University in Italy and a Chocolate Master program in Switzerland, has been instrumental in providing the best solutions to IREKS’ customers in the Maldives.

IREKS, the renowned German company, is a global player in the industry, celebrated for their expertise in developing innovative baking ingredients and catering to the preferences of the health-conscious and quality-driven generation. IREKS provides high-quality bakery flour and ingredients, including baking improvers, specialty bread mixes, gluten-free mixes, vegan mixes, and confectionary mixes. With a growing awareness of the impact of food production on people and the environment, IREKS offers a diverse range of organic baking improvers and mixes for the efficient production of various organic quality baked goods. They exclusively source raw materials from controlled organic cultivation.

In addition to its range of flour mixes focused on multiple baking needs, IREKS also offers a wide “Free-from” range, accommodating various dietary preferences such as lactose-free, palm oil-free, additive-free, egg-free, sugar-free, or vegan options.

In particular, IREKS has been providing a comprehensive Gluten-Free range since 1995. Gluten, a protein that provides structure, is essential for making grains bakeable, and it would be a challenge to bake without its presence. At the same time, gluten-free baked goods are growing in demand – even from those who do not suffer from medical conditions (e.g.: celiac disease). In order to meet the high safety requirements in this specialised production process, gluten-free ingredients are carefully and meticulously selected and processed at IREKS’s state-of-the-art facilities in Germany.

So, this powerhouse of the baking profession, Master Baker Steven, will share his vast expertise with the resort bakers’ community during these demonstration sessions. Should you wish to participate in a training session, please contact Bestbuy Maldives.
