Speaker Profile
Giuseppe Esposito
Chairman,EP World Catering Facility Management
Giuseppe Esposito was born on August 12, 1973, in Naples, Italy. My upbringing was heavily influenced by my hardworking father, who served as a role model. Academic pursuits were never my forte, and I began working at the age of 16, managing one of Napoli’s largest bars.
My modest academic performance stemmed from my inclination towards hands-on work over textbooks, reflecting my entrepreneurial spirit. However, I recognize the evolving importance of education in today’s world.
I’ve been fortunate to contribute to our family business, EP, witnessing its growth and my personal development. Some noteworthy achievements and challenges include:
- Serving as the president of the food industry in Campania, Italy, under Confindustria.
- Pioneering the use of electric vehicles in the F&B industry in Europe.
- Expanding our company to Dubai in 2013.
- Involvement in events like the Americas Cup in 2013, Expo in Milan in 2015, and Expo in Dubai in 2021, where we earned the title of best F&B provider.
- Employee in Italy 1.200, Employee in Dubai 298
These milestones reflect a journey of growth, marked by both successes and setbacks, which have molded me into a better individual and entrepreneur. I eagerly anticipate the future, embracing it with an open mind and a commitment to learning from every experience.
