For well over four hundred years, the blue ribbon has been a symbol of unparalleled excellence. In the 16th century, it stood for Les Cordon Bleus, an order of chivalrous French knights, so called for the blue ribbon they wore on their uniform.

In the 19th and 20th centuries, it inspired The Blue Ribbon, the ultimate accolade awarded for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic by the most powerful and luxurious passenger liners of their time. Since then, the blue ribbon has symbolized excellence in athletics as well as academia the world over.

Today, the blue ribbon is more than just the inspiration behind our name. It also inspires our constant quest for the superlative.

We are dedicated to providing the finest equipment to the hospitality industry – from fine china and premium cutlery to linen, furniture and more. We scour the world for the most exceptional brands. Add to that our truly personalized service and you have the perfect recipe for success. Small wonder that our client list includes some of the most prestigious names in the business.

Blue Ribbon was formed by Prakash Menon, an industry veteran with over 20 years in the Hospitality business. With its unmatched range of brands, attentive service and competitive prices, Blue Ribbon has rapidly grown into a Premier hospitality company in the Middle East with its headquarters in Dubai.

In 2014, our journey continued and we extended our operations into India with offices in Mumbai & Delhi.

Blue Ribbon views the passionate, committed employees as the most essential element for guaranteeing superior service to our customers. Therefore we created a work environment that brings out the best of each individual; and we strive to make the workday delightful for our employees. In return employees are expected to act responsibly and in the best interest of the company at all times.

Towards this end we, collectively, have adopted a number of VALUES that define our organization.
