Kuwait Aviation Services Company (KASCO)

Kuwait Aviation Services Company, known as KASCO, provides airline catering at Kuwait International Airport. Its website says it was established in 1980 after Kuwait Airways identified the need for a separate company for ground functions and a flight kitchen at the airport, and that airline catering operations began in 1981.

Services

• Airline catering: the company says its central kitchens, with cold, hot, bakery and pastry divisions, can produce 25,000 meals a day and that it supplies nine major airlines as well as private jets and VIP charters
• Lounge catering and operation of the Dasman Lounge, a first and business class lounge at Kuwait International Airport
• Gourmet by KASCO: banquet and event catering
• D'light by KASCO: calorie-controlled healthy meals

Location

The kitchen sits next to the airport with direct ramp access, which the company says keeps order and delivery times short. Operations run 24 hours a day; the office is open Sunday to Thursday.
