42Partir… ou Rester: L’histoire d’une fidélité inébranlable et d’un engagement profondHOLDAL, bien plus qu’une entreprise familiale, incarne 77 années de dévouement indéfectible envers le Liban. Son histoire est celle d’une fidélité à toute épreuve, d’une résilience exceptionnelle et d’une détermination sans faille. Tout a débuté à la fin des années 40, lorsqu’un professeur de chimie charismatique, muni d’une valise et d’une passion dévorante pour l’entrepreneuriat, a posé les premières pierres de
cette entreprise.
Au fil des décennies, HOLDAL a su se développer et se diversifier, devenant ainsi un acteur important de la distribution, de la franchise et de la fabrication au Liban.
Durant la guerre civile libanaise, le groupe a tenu bon, renforçant ses fondations en nouant de nouveaux partenariats, témoignant d’une endurance remarquable.
En 2010, HOLDAL a entamé une transformation culturelle majeure, intégrant des valeurs fondamentales: raison d’être sociale, responsabilité environnementale, gouvernance éthique. Cette démarche a donné naissance à de nouvelles entités, comme le traitement
des commandes e-commerce et le « last mile delivery ».
Malgré les défis incessants, de la pandémie de COVID-19 à l’effondrement économique du pays, HOLDAL a continué d’innover et de recruter de jeunes talents Libanais. L’entreprise a su s’adapter et se réinventer, fidèle à sa philosophie : avancer à contre-courant, mais jamais à contre-cœur.
En 2021, la troisième génération a pris les rênes de HOLDAL, portée par un programme d’innovation, de croissance et de durabilité. La raison d’être de l’entreprise demeure intacte: un attachement à la communauté, à l’héritage culturel et aux racines du Liban.
Cet engagement se traduit par des actions concrètes au service de la santé, du bien-être, de l’éducation, de l’égalité des genres et de l’environnement. HOLDAL tisse des partenariats avec divers acteurs, unis par une vision du progrès.
Cette année qui marque les 100 ans de L’Orient-Le Jour nous rappelle aussi les 4 ans de l’explosion du port de Beyrouth qui continue à bouleverser nos cœurs.
Avec 77 ans d’engagement chevillés au corps, HOLDAL a fait le choix de rester, persévérer et investir dans la jeunesse libanaise, en bâtissant un futur porteur d’espoir. Fidèle à son poste, HOLDAL s’engage à écrire de nouveaux chapitres pour les générations
d’aujourd’hui et de demain.
Unis dans la diversité et la solidarité construisons ensemble un Liban plus juste et plus humain.08.14.2024 -

29Zari3et Albe - Planting SeedsEmbracing the sustainability ethos, Ardi Ardak recently led an inspiring planting session at HOLDAL Group, inviting HOLDALIANS to delve into the world of eco-conscious agriculture.
Amidst the socio-economic crisis, the Environment and Sustainable Development Unit (ESDU) at the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences (FAFS) at AUB, in collaboration with the Lebanese League for Women in Business (LLWB), the Food Heritage Foundation (FHF) and Ziko House, introduced a distinctive initiative on February 82, 2020-Ardi Ardak. This initiative is about more than just providing small-scale producers with knowledge, resources, and marketing channels or urban consumers with access to local healthy produce. It promotes sustainable, eco-friendly agricultural practices and innovative food processing, bridging the gap between innovation and traditional authentic production.
The significance of this planting session extended far beyond the mere act of sowing seeds. It was a powerful reminder of the transformative power of individual action in the fight against environmental degradation. By choosing to grow their produce, participants ensured access to healthier, safer food and took a meaningful step towards reducing their carbon footprint and promoting a more sustainable lifestyle.
The advantages of homegrown agriculture are not just environmental; they're personal, too. By eliminating the need for harmful pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, gardeners can create thriving ecosystems that support biodiversity and soil health. But the most rewarding aspect is the deeper connection to the natural world that growing your own harvest fosters, instilling a sense of gratitude for the Earth's abundance.
As participants dug their hands into the rich soil and tenderly nested seeds into their homes, they forged a land that would sustain them in the coming days and months.
In a world that often feels fraught with uncertainty, Ardi Ardak's planting session served as a reminder that each of us has the power to effect positive change. By embracing sustainable practices in our everyday lives, we can cultivate a future that is abundant and regenerative.

23CeraVe by Michael Cera?Michael Cera's recent escapade at a New York pharmacy, where he was spotted signing bottles of CeraVe, has finally been demystified.
The actor's intriguing affiliation with the skincare brand was unveiled during the Super Bowl, where their collaborative ad stole the spotlight.In the commercial, Cera amusingly dubbed CeraVe his personal cream, even giving it his signature twist: "Cera-ve."
The advertisement, a delightful blend of satire and drama, showcased Michael getting a massage while pondering CeraVe's magical moisturizing prowess on human skin.With witty lines like "Let my cream hydrate you", the commercial was a mixture of entertainment while delivering its message. It concluded with Cera presenting his idea to the board. "I think it would be really nice if people think I made this," he said, followed by the brand's clarification that it's formulated by dermatologists, not by the actor himself.
This humorous yet informative advertisement has garnered recognition online. Many consider it the standout commercial of the Super Bowl and applaud the clever partnership between Cera and CeraVe.

22Mustela - Sharing the Mental Burden of Parenting: Tips for Less Stressful DaysAt HOLDAL, we care about our community's mental health and wellbeing, especially working moms, this is why we want to give you tips on mental load.
How to reduce your mental load?
1. Be aware of your mental load
In many complex situations that impact our daily well-being, the first step is to accept the situation.
2. Communicate with your partner and those around youCommunicating with your partner is key to explain your feelings and what you are going through (stress, insomnia, etc.).
3. Change your habits
If you're experiencing mental overload, changing your habits will be lifesaving.
Take a moment to list everything you do on a daily basis. Then try to identify what is essential and what is "good but necessary".4. Reallocate tasks more fairly
The last (but not least) step in your process: reallocate your tasks! You might be tempted to think "I'm keeping this task because I know how to do it, I'll do it faster" and yet you need to relieve yourself of the burden to avoid another overload.

16Fratelli Rossetti presents “Design at your heels”April 2019 – Fratelli Rossetti chose the Fuorisalone to present a limited edition characterized by a heel handmade & heartmade, co-designed with Beirut designer Nada Debs. Sixty exclusive pieces in two versions – off white and red nubuck – will be available only at Fratelli Rossetti boutiques in Milan, Beirut and online.
Nada Debs, exploring the signature craft of contemporary mother-of-pearl inlay in natural solid walnut wood, creates a unique heel featuring a zig-zag pattern. The lines of the illustration symbolize the heartbeat of Milan and Beirut, two buzzing sister cities, both creative hubs on the world design map.
“I met Nada on one of my travels to Beirut, a city that I love for its intellectual vivaciousness” says Diego Rossetti, President of the Milanese brand. “I visited her studio and became fascinated with her ability to combine design and craft, values that we shared. This is how this limited edition was born”.
Nada Debs will also be taking over the windows design of the flagship store at 1, Montenapoleone in Milan from Friday, April 5th and throughout the following days of Salone del Mobile until Sunday, April 21 2019.
On Thursday, April 11ththe boutique host an opening event with a DJ-set and wine tasting, starting at 6:30PM. The wine partner for the event will be Guido Berlucchi, which shares with Fratelli Rossetti the same quality-driven pursuit and Made-in-Italy qualities. During the evening it will be possible to taste Berlucchi ’61 Franciacorta Satèn, a wine that is soft, mellow and silky on the palate: an exceptional choice for an aperitif, both inside and outside the glass.
Nada Debs is a Lebanese designer living and working in Beirut. Nada grew up in Japan, studied design at the Rhode Island School of Design in the United States and has spent significant periods of time living and travelling the world, finding connections between different cultures. In her work, each detail recalls one of her experiences. In essence, she captures the power of the human hand to tell stories that touch the heart. She calls her approach: handmade & heart made.
Fratelli Rossetti was founded in 1953 in Parabiago, a town just outside Milan, thanks to the visionary genius Renzo Rossetti.

10Fratelli Rossetti Renovated StoreFratelli Rossetti is celebrating the reopening of its boutique in ABC Achrafieh. The craft techniques used to create Fratelli Rossetti footwear inspired the composition, design and materials in the new concept store.
The craft colouring and processing techniques used on the leather for the footwear are brought to mind by the old, faded teak flooring and the Turkish rugs, which are naturally dyed and washed out deliberately to bring out the original patterns.
The handmade decorations and resins combine with the brushed concrete wall in tobacco, dove grey and chestnut hues to produce highly varied surfaces and colours. They reflect the multiform nature of craft products, which may be perfectly made but will still be full of imperfect and irregular details that make them unique.
The chrome metals and the burnished brass used in the display backdrops give the boutique a sophisticated allure that is reminiscent of the superior, high-quality materials selected for Fratelli Rossetti’s craft products.

Saxon watchmaker continues to expand in the Middle East
A. Lange & Söhne, the renowned watchmaker from Saxony, Germany, is expanding its presence in the Middle East with the opening of a boutique in Beirut, Lebanon. Located in the heart of Downtown Beirut, the capital’s most famous and vibrant luxury-shopping area, the new mono-brand store is yet another milestone in the company's on-going internationalisation.
“The opening of our first boutique in Beirut is an important step in A. Lange & Söhne’s expansion strategy for the Middle East. It is both a commitment to Lange’s loyal fan base in the region and a tribute to the increasing importance of the Lebanese market for our brand,” said Ramzi Nael, Brand Director Middle East, Africa & India at A. Lange & Söhne. Since its first appearance in 1999, A. Lange & Söhne has continuously extended its presence in Middle East markets.
The shop will be operated in cooperation with long-time partner Cadrans, Maison de Haute Horlogerie, present in the market for over 40 years. “After 13 years of successful partnership, we are delighted and proud to open the country’s first A. Lange & Söhne boutique in Beirut. This is a testimony of this prestigious brand’s appeal among the city’s watch connoisseurs and its continuous rise in Lebanon,” said Raymond Abou Adal, CEO of Holdal Group that owns Cadrans.
The new home of A. Lange & Söhne offers watch collectors and connoisseurs the complete experience of Saxon watchmaking artistry including the latest debuts and exclusive boutique models. Every interior design detail of the new store will reflect the watchmaker’s untiring quest for precision and perfection. The corporate colour, an elegant grey, can be found in the wood panelling. Elements made of sandstone are an indication of the brand’s origin. The material is typical of the manufactory’s surroundings, known by the name of Saxon Switzerland. A. Lange & Söhne Beirut is sure to become another embassy of Saxon fine watchmaking and a watch aficionado’s paradise.
A. Lange & Söhne Beirut is located at 153 Foch Street, Central District, Beirut. Store hours are 10:00am to 7:00pm.
