Rabih Fakhreddine has enriched the culinary, entertainment and nightlife industry in the Middle East with his creative and out of the box ideas. Born in Lebanon, Rabih graduated from the American University of Beirut in 2006 with a Business Marketing degree. Following graduation, he started his career within the FMCG industry at Transmed (Procter& Gamble), before moving to British American Tobacco (BAT) where he was assigned several managerial positions for the Levant region. A visionary at heart, with a passion for creating new experiences and concepts, Rabih stepped out of the corporate world in 2015 to follow his deep seeded aspirations to achieve great things in the F&B and entertainment industry, equipped with an unwavering vision of growth and development. Consequently, he established 7 Management with its inaugural launch of Seven Sisters; a luxurious oasis of music and cuisine within the heart of Beirut. Seven sisters acted as a catalyst for the development of the food, beverage and entertainment brands that followed shortly afterwards in Beirut, Dubai, and Doha. The Theater, February 30, Lucia’s, Antika, Sayf, Café Beirut, Black Flamingo and Limonata are just a few of the stellar homegrown creations of 7 Management including the recent expansion into Europe with the opening of its first international festive brand, Bagatelle Athens.
