HRS PARTNERS WITH MAISON ARIBERT

 TO PROVIDE CATERING SERVICES FOR ITS NEW FACILITY,

COMBINING CULINARY EXCELLENCE WITH SUSTAINABILITY

Grenoble, October 25, 2023 - HRS, a European designer and manufacturer of hydrogen refueling stations, today announces a new partnership with Maison Aribert, an establishment headed by top chef Christophe Aribert, who boasts a two-star rating in the Michelin guide and four “toques” in Gault Millau. This collaboration marks a new milestone in HRS' determined commitment to offer its employees a premium working environment, fully in keeping with the commitment shared by the Company and its CEO Hassen Rachedi to fostering responsibility and sustainability, as illustrated by the successful introduction of the four-day week for the production teams.

Nestling in the heart of the Uriage-les-Bains spa town park, Maison Aribert embodies the perfect alliance between tradition and innovation. Head chef Christophe Aribert draws his inspiration from his mountain roots and affinity for the values of nature. Boasting two stars in the Michelin guide and four “toques” in Gault Millau, chef Aribert bridges the gap between humans and their environment by offering a cuisine centered on seasonal produce, vegetables and wild mountain herbs.

Under the partnership, Maison Aribert will concoct and prepare varied and balanced menus for HRS employees working at the new Champagnier facility by sourcing local fresh seasonal produce, thereby promoting regional producers and respect for the environment. A large portion of this produce will be grown on site in the vicinity of the Company restaurant, in a vegetable garden spanning over 250 m².

HRS and Maison Aribert share the same vision of a sustainable, more virtuous world and responsible food available to all.

Hassen Rachedi, Founding Chairman and CEO of HRS: “At HRS, we pay particular attention to our employees' well-being. I am proud that a two-star chef of the caliber of Christophe Aribert has taken over the reins of the Company restaurant at our new facility, a chance to share with him my passion for French cuisine and my commitment to eco-responsible development. This collaboration illustrates our commitment to ensuring quality of life at work at HRS.”

Christophe Aribert: “Hassen's philosophy and project immediately struck a chord with me; helping HRS to “eat well” in the workplace and providing a necessary balance during the working day is, in my opinion, an essential commitment for employees. I am happy to be working on this project with this company on our common ground.”
