History

Established in 1992.

Alima’s started serving our great customers since 1992. Back then we had three employees and we occupied 1500 sq. ft in the complex. Initially we did not have a retail component and prepared our fine products by order only. However we soon saw the need to further serve our customers and we opened for retail take-​out. Since then we have grown steadily; we are now open seven days a week; we have twenty– six employees and we occupy 8000 sq ft in our complex.
