Dubai: Emirati entrepreneur Ahmed Al Zarooni is behind The Creative House, a hospitality group that has grown from a small home-based food concept into a wider portfolio of venues across the UAE.
In a profile published on 1 November 2026, Al Zarooni traces his path from early experiences in Sharjah to a business career that included roles across sectors such as aviation, telecommunications, government entities and events, before co-founding the group.
The article says the business began around the family’s food idea, which was developed into a food cart for events and then into a permanent restaurant, described as starting with 20 seats. It also highlights the decision to expand to a second branch in Dubai as a turning point.
Today, the profile says The Creative House operates 10 concepts and 17 branches, with the business scaling to serve more than 4,000 guests at a time.
Al Zarooni is quoted as framing his approach as “start small, scale fast, dream big”, alongside a focus on learning, responsibility and building for long-term impact.
