Kuwait Municipality Boost Food Security With Seven New Catering And Storage Sites

Engineer Saud Al-Dabbous, the Director General of Kuwait Municipality, announced the establishment of seven new catering center sites across all governorates to enhance food security in the country. These sites vary in size from 500 to 1,000 square meters. Additionally, four storage locations have been prepared, with areas ranging from 10,000 to 100,000 square meters.
