European investment firm Von der Heyden Group headquartered in Malta has acquired a prominent location on the waterfront of the Mahón Marina in Menorca. The Group has been established in the Balearic Islands with a two-decade history in its Travel and Yachting subsidiaries as well as its two hospitality brands Cugó Gran and IBB Hotel Collection.
The Malta-inspired Hammett’s Mestizo concept with a 35-strong team will mark the Group’s 5th establishment in its catering division, but its first overseas in Menorca with Hammett’s Collection.
The Group has also established itself in Malta with the award-winning Cugó Gran Macina, a revival of Senglea’s 16th-century fortification in 2018. The group has ambitious plans to grow the Cugó Gran Hotel Brand in Malta, Italy and Costa Rica to complement its storied and landmark hotel portfolio.
Around mid-May, Hammett’s Mestizo Mahón will be inaugurated after a first, light renovation. The Restaurant is accessibly located directly beside the iconic Club Marítimo and the public elevator reaching the port. In Winter 2023/2024, further enhancement and embellishment works are planned.
