CitiBank HO Cafeteria

CitiBank has maintained a prestigious and continuous presence in Egypt since 1975, serving as a cornerstone for major local financing and capital market transactions for institutional clients. Given its long-standing history and commitment to excellence, the bank’s headquarters must reflect its global stature.

However, the HQ’s cafeteria a vital space for employee well-being faced significant operational challenges. The primary “pain points” included:

• Infrastructure Aging: The facility suffered from outdated finishes and “aging” aesthetics that no longer aligned with Citi’s modern brand image.
• Environmental Challenges: A major flaw in the existing ventilation system led to poor air quality, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere for staff.
• Inefficient Space Utilization: The layout failed to maximize the available square footage, limiting the capacity and flow of the dining area.

To resolve these multifaceted issues, EliteTFM implemented a comprehensive renovation strategy rooted in international project management standards. Leveraging a team of experts certified in PMP, Prince2, and Agile, and backed by over 20 years of experience in Architecture, Civil works, and MEP, we delivered a tailored transformation.
