The Board of Directors of the Saudi Almarai Company approved an ambitious plan to expand in the poultry sector.


According to ArabiaNet, the company said in a statement, that the board of directors approved capital investments worth 275 million riyals to expand existing production and manufacturing facilities.


The Board of Directors agreed to proceed with a study to develop facilities for the production of poultry mothers in order to achieve the vertical integration of poultry supplies, as the poultry sector recorded satisfactory financial results during the first quarter of this year and over the past two years.


The rangeland department will conduct a comprehensive study to assess potential additional expansions in the basic food categories that would strengthen the Kingdom's food supply chains.
