Careem has launched a three-course lunch deal for only Dhs29 in Abu Dhabi
Flying solo for lunch again? We've all been there – scrolling through endless menus, only to end up overpaying for a meal-for-one that didn't exactly hit the spot anyway.
But now there's a slick new solution from Careem that's here to save your midday munch. Say hello to Meals:On.
Launching in Abu Dhabi, Meals:On is Careem Food's newest feature and it's tailor-made for the city's solo diners. The idea is simple: curated, quality meal deals from top Abu Dhabi spots – all under Dhs29. We're talking mains, sides and drinks bundled together for less than the price of your favourite brunch drink.
Here's why this is a game-changer: over 64 percent of Careem Food's customers in the UAE usually order for one, especially during lunch. Inspired by Careem's 2022 acquisition of solo-meal platform Munch:On, Meals:On was rebuilt from scratch to streamline lunch breaks and late-night cravings for solo foodies across the capital.
And there's more good news. If you're a Careem Plus member, delivery is totally free – even if your meal costs just Dhs15. That means no more feeling guilty about ordering dinner for one or padding your basket just to hit a minimum spend.
You'll find dishes from your Abu Dhabi faves like:
Wagamama
Wingstop
Just Burger
Papa Johns
Allo Beirut
Zaatar w Zeit
Right Bite
Barbar
Costa
Sushi Do
(And more).
Careem's promising even more coming soon, including options for couples, small group bundles, meal planning and scheduling. And Dubai, you're up next.
So if your midday meetings are running long and your fridge is looking sad, fire up the Careem app, hit Meals:On and order something delicious without breaking the bank – or your lunch break.

NMDC LTS concludes acquisition of 70% equity stake in Emdad
NMDC LTS, a wholly owned subsidiary of the NMDC Group, has completed the acquisition of a 70 per cent stake of the share capital and voting rights in Emdad, an integrated service provider specialising in the oil and gas, utilities, and industrial sectors. The transaction was financed through debt and equity. This acquisition enables NMDC Group to expand into the OPEX segment of recurring revenues in the oilfield services, further diversifying its portfolio and strengthening its competitive advantage. In parallel, this acquisition will provide NMDC Group with a broader range of services and additional avenues for revenue growth, with Emdad's offering spanning over an array of different services, including well intervention, waste management, shutdown/ turnaround, coil tubing, valves, among other services. Emdad reported revenues in excess of Dh600 million in 2024 and its equity stood at Dh217 million. Eng. Yasser Zaghloul, CEO of NMDC Group, commented: 'We are happy to complete this landmark acquisition which marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for both organizations. Emdad stands out as an industry leader with robust capabilities and deep sector expertise. By combining its strengths with NMDC's scale and commitment to innovation, we now have a powerful platform to unlock long-term value. With diversification at its core, this integration enhances our ability to deliver broader service offerings, create greater value, and drive sustainable growth for our clients, partners, and stakeholders across the dynamic energy landscape.' Mohammed Juma Al Bawardi, CEO of Emdad, commented: 'This milestone transaction underscores the sophistication and attractiveness of the UAE's energy sector as well as the trust that NMDC has in Emdad's position as a leading service provider in the market. We are confident that through this compelling partnership, where we are now plugged into the wider NMDC platform, we will be able to chart an exciting new journey of growth. Ultimately, this collaboration will unlock deeper value for our customers and help us to achieve our shared goals for sustainable success.' The update is another further step in NMDC's strategy to drive value creation, strengthen its regional presence, and support revenue growth.

Abu Dhabi's IRH acquires majority stake in Congo's tin producer for $367 million
International Resources Holding (IRH), a unit of International Holding Company (IHC), has entered into a definitive agreement to buy a majority stake in the Democratic Republic of Congo's tin producer Alphamin Resources for $367 million as the Abu Dhabi-based company continues to expand its presence in Africa. As part of the agreement, IRH, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired a 56 per cent stake in Alphamin from Tremont Master Holdings, paying C$0.70 per share, or about $367 million, the two companies said in a statement on Wednesday. Alphamin, which is listed on Canada's TSX Venture Exchange and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, is one of the world's largest producers of tin that is used in electronics, manufacturing, and industrial applications. 'This acquisition strengthens IRH's position in the global industrial metals sector, adding a majority interest in a highly productive and strategically important tin asset to its portfolio,' the companies said. IRH is part of 2PointZero, which was set up by IHC last year, with more than Dh100 billion ($27.2 billion) in assets. The company has been expanding its operations globally, with a focus on energy transition minerals and resources such as copper, cobalt, nickel, lithium, 3T (tin, tantalum and tungsten), manganese and graphite. Last year, IRH completed the acquisition of Mopani Copper Mines in Zambia, to expand its operations in the mining sector, for $1.1 billion. It also signed a joint venture agreement for mineral exploration ion Balochistan province of Pakistan in March. Its other agreements include a collaboration with South Africa's Public Investment Corporation, with a focus on unlocking value across the mining, green energy and transport and logistics sectors. "Alphamin's strong production profile aligns with our strategy of securing interests in high-quality mining assets with long-term growth potential,' Ali Alrashdi, chief executive of IRH, said. IHC, the largest listed company in the UAE, is on an acquisition spree. The conglomerate aims to double its asset base to Dh800 billion and hit the Dh200 billion annual revenue mark by the end of the decade, its chief executive Syed Basar Shueb told The National in an interview last month. The UAE, the Arab world's second-largest economy, accounts for 60 per cent of IHC's Dh416.5 billion asset base as of the first quarter this year, while the rest is spread across the region and the markets beyond.
