MALDIVES RESORT PLANS
Twenty new hotels and 15 new resorts are to be built in the Maldives after the government agreed to add 35 unin- habited islands to its tourism portfolio. The move will increase the Maldives’ portfolio of resorts by 58 per cent. Twenty of the 35 leases have been
taken up by developers and are set to see the creation of 10 mid-market and 10 luxury hotels. The remaining 15 islands have been
placed in the care of a newly formed company called the Maldives Tourism Development Corporation.

Service Station male spa to roll out in US
Barbershop concept to expand to 10 new sites within five years
The Service Station, a Los Angeles–based male spa and barbershop, is to be rolled out to 10 new sites in southern California, US, within the next five years. Described by its owners as “part
rock’n roll, part Zen”, the Cotner Avenue- based Service Station in LA opened in December 2005 as a place where the urban male “could receive great grooming services and personal attention”. Founded by marketing executive Scott
Holmes and inspired by a full-service gas station his grandfather used to own, Service Station has been designed by Fred Sutherland of Fred 62 to resemble a garage, complete with a Le Mans pit stop, hoses producing jets of air to spray hair clippings away and a ‘pit-crew’ staff.
