He will be transitioning out of his current role at the company as chief commercial officer into this new role in order to oversee sbe’s hotel portfolio expansion, overseeing the operations of current and future hotels as well as strengthening owner relationships. Farhat’s executive position plays a critical role within the recently assembled leadership team at sbe.

We’re planning to grow our hotel footprint significantly in this market over the next few years,” said Nazarian. “Not only does Chadi have extensive experience and knowledge of the region, but his passion for the brands is equally as strong.”
