The company has eastern and western menus, all of which are highly durable, combat proven, and cost effective, with ethnic and nutritious considerations.
Wasita provides catering and a wide range of support services to public and private entities, including military, oil and gas, healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Wasita is also very active in the humanitarian and relief aid sector in cooperation with the UAE Red Crescent, UAE’s National Supreme Security Council, and The National Emergency Crisis and Disasters Management Authority.

Moreover, it was agreed that Al Wasita Group has the initial right of first refusal to business inquiries received from other countries of the GCC.
It is worth mentioning that ARM MREs require no cooking; only reheating, and are acknowledged for their two-year shelf life, where no special storage method is needed, and also for the pack integrity, as the individual dish is packed in a four-ply reinforced oriented nylon laminated pouch. The single meal pack ration is comprised of a complete meal consisting of an entrée, dessert, beverage and other ancillaries. The 24 hour meal pack ration has two complete meals in addition to breakfast.
