Walid AlHashash heads Mood Consultancy and Contracting. Here, the visionary co-founder and CEO discusses the group’s latest venture.
What inspired the creation of MOOD LLC?
Mood LLC was initially born from a deep passion for culinary arts and a strong desire to elevate Saudi Arabia’s food scene. With this motivation, we set out to create a platform that merges global trends with cherished local traditions seamlessly. Furthermore, we offer carefully tailored services that aim to help businesses thrive within Saudi Arabia’s vibrant and constantly evolving F&B industry.
How does MOOD LLC balance innovation with tradition in Saudi Arabia’s evolving culinary scene?
By honoring Saudi Arabia’s rich culinary heritage and thoughtfully incorporating modern techniques and trends, we create experiences balancing tradition and innovation. Moreover, by working closely with local chefs and artisans, we ensure that innovation carefully enhances rather than overshadows the essence of tradition. Consequently, this mindful balance consistently helps us stay relevant to modern tastes while remaining deeply true to our cultural roots.
What are your upcoming plans for MOOD LLC?
We are genuinely excited to expand our services, focusing on innovative culinary concepts and reaching new markets while supporting local businesses. As part of this growth, we plan to leverage our contracting division, which excels in designing and overseeing F&B spaces effectively. This ongoing success has inspired us to broaden our offering contracting services for larger architectural projects across sectors. By including private developments, commercial spaces, and complex ventures, we aim to meet a diverse range of client needs thoughtfully. Additionally, we’re actively exploring strategic partnerships and digital initiatives to strengthen our offerings within the evolving F&B industry.
