During the past two years SADAFCO has expanded its product range with new launches in the Breakfast Cream, Cheese, Butter, Powdered Milk, Ketchup, Fortified Children’s Milk and Frozen French Fries categories.

These new additions have been the result of SADAFCO’s pursuit of its corporate mission, which states: “To develop, produce and market a range of nutritious food propositions for consumers of all age groups and create maximum shareholder value through team work”. This mission remains the company’s drive as it explores consumer needs to seek out more relevant product offerings to add to the Saudia range.
