Professional Stewarding Service Dubai
Dedicated kitchen stewards for restaurants, hotels, and catering companies across the UAE. Trained dishwashers and kitchen porters placed on-site — so your kitchen runs clean, compliant, and without interruption.
Municipality CompliantDedicated Stewards Placed Inside Your Kitchen
Stewarding is a specialised hospitality service where trained kitchen staff are permanently placed inside your restaurant, hotel kitchen, or catering facility to handle all dishwashing, utensil management, pot washing, and basic kitchen porter duties. This is distinct from a general cleaning service — stewards are your in-house washing team, working alongside your chefs every shift.
At Grease Trap Cleaning Services LLC (Al Khayam Catering Equipment Trading LLC), we supply uniformed, medically cleared, and HACCP-trained stewards on flexible contracts. Whether you need one part-time steward for a small café or a full team with a supervisor for a five-star hotel banqueting operation, we size the team to your covers-per-day and deploy fast.
Every steward arrives with valid UAE residency documents, food handler certification, and a medical fitness certificate — ensuring you are fully compliant at every Dubai Municipality or ADPHCS inspection.
- Dedicated dishwashing & pot wash stewards
- Uniformed, medically cleared staff
- HACCP & food safety trained
- Replacement guaranteed — same-day if absent
- Flexible daily, weekly, monthly & annual contracts
- On-site supervisor included for teams of 5+
Full Scope of Our Stewarding Service
Every steward we place covers the complete washing area — from crockery and glassware to pots, surfaces, and waste handling.
Trained stewards stationed at your dish machine and wash area full-time, ensuring crockery, glassware, and cutlery are cleaned, sanitised, and returned to service quickly.
General kitchen porter duties including receiving deliveries, moving stock, maintaining kitchen cleanliness between service periods, and supporting chef de partie requirements.
Careful handling, sorting, and storage of all kitchen utensils, crockery, and smallwares following HACCP protocols to prevent breakage and cross-contamination.
Complete pot wash station management — soaking, scrubbing, sanitising, and drying of all pots, pans, trays, and gastronorm containers used throughout service.
Proper waste segregation into food, general, recyclable, and grease waste streams — handled according to Dubai Municipality guidelines with timely bin-room disposal.
Flexible shift structures including morning, evening, split, and full 24-hour coverage to match your operational hours — whether you run one service or round-the-clock production.
Why Choose GTC Stewards?
Six reasons UAE kitchens trust us to supply and manage their stewarding teams.
Every steward completes a HACCP food safety course before placement. They understand cross-contamination risks, sanitisation schedules, and correct chemical handling — keeping your kitchen compliant.
All our stewards arrive in GTC-branded uniforms with valid medical fitness certificates and food handler cards — ready to pass any health inspection on their first day.
If any steward is absent, we dispatch a trained replacement from our pool the same day. Your kitchen is never left without washing support — not even for one shift.
Daily event coverage, short weekly trials, rolling monthly arrangements, or annual agreements — we structure contracts around your budget and operational certainty.
Teams of five or more stewards include a dedicated on-site supervisor who manages daily attendance, quality, performance reviews, and communication with your kitchen management.
We handle all staff documentation — visa status, medical fitness, food handler certificates, and work permits — so your establishment is never at risk during government inspections.
Our Stewarding Deployment Process
From first contact to fully operational team — a structured five-step approach that gets your stewards in place fast.
We visit your kitchen to assess the washing area size, equipment capacity, dish machine type, and daily cover count to plan the right team size.
Based on covers-per-day, service periods, and kitchen layout, we recommend the optimal number of stewards and shift pattern to keep your washing area flowing.
We match trained, experienced stewards to your kitchen type — whether fine dining, high-volume cafeteria, cloud kitchen, or hotel banqueting. You may interview candidates before placement.
Staff arrive in GTC uniform on day one with all required documents — medical certificate, food handler card, and visa copy — fully briefed on your SOPs and kitchen layout.
Regular supervisor visits and performance reviews ensure standards are maintained. Monthly reports on attendance, output, and any corrective actions are shared with your management team.

Stewarding Service — FAQs
Everything you need to know before engaging a stewarding team for your UAE kitchen.
Every steward we place carries full documentation and is trained to Dubai Municipality and HACCP standards. Your kitchen stays inspection-ready from day one — no gaps, no compliance risk.
✓ Fully CompliantYour Kitchen, Always Inspection-Ready
Health inspectors from Dubai Municipality, ADPHCS, Sharjah Municipality, and other UAE regulatory authorities can visit without notice. Having a GTC stewarding team means your washing area, waste handling, and food contact surface hygiene are always at the standard required — because our staff are trained for exactly that environment.
We provide you with a complete documentation pack for every steward: food handler certificates, medical fitness records, training completion cards, and visa copies. This pack is yours to keep on file and present during any inspection. Our supervisors also maintain internal cleaning logs and attendance records that can be shared as supporting evidence of compliance.
If municipality requirements change — new chemical regulations, updated food handler certification rules, or revised hygiene inspection criteria — we update our staff training immediately and notify you so there are no surprises.
