Zulfiqar Hamadani CEO of Tanmiah, said: “Our solid financial performance during the year was largely supported by the sustained expansion of our production capacity and our focused marketing and distribution activities, which complement our fully integrated business model, to generate tangible value for our stakeholders.
“We are indeed proud of our accomplishments on several fronts, not only financially, but also operationally and strategically. 2023 marks yet another critical milestone in Tanmiah’s successful growth journey, as we continued to tactically focus our efforts on advancing product innovation, digitalisation, sustainability, and operational excellence. These include the launch of Tanmiah-Life, a nutritious new fresh poultry line enriched with Omega-3 (the first of its kind in MENA); the prestigious ‘Product of the Year 2023’ award in the fresh chicken eco-friendly category; the ‘Innovation Award’ from Nielsen NIQ; and the renowned recognition by Forbes within the ‘Top 10 Innovative Companies in Sustainability’.
“The exceptional success of our food franchise operations, ever since the launch of this vertical in 2021, has prompted the expansion of the Popeyes franchise across the GCC, with the signing of exclusive development agreements to operate in the growing markets of Kuwait and Bahrain. Looking ahead, we are determined to transform into a global powerhouse in the halal sustainable and healthy protein market.”
