<\/strong>BRF + H<\/strong>PDC break ground on Jeddah factory:<\/strong> Brazil-based food processor BRF<\/a> and PIF-owned Halal Products Development Company<\/a> (HPDC) started building a new USD 160 mn processed food factory in Jeddah with an annual capacity of 40k tons, according to a press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The plant is being developed by BRF Arabia<\/strong>, a JV established in August 2023, with 70% owned by BRF and 30% owned by HDPC.<\/p>\n

The details:<\/strong> The investment will be spread across 2025 and 2026, spending some USD 63 mn this year and USD 98 mn next year. The factory\u2019s design will allow for a future expansion to double production. The project is expected to create over 500 direct jobs and will initially rely on raw materials from Brazil, slated to begin operations in mid-2026. <\/p>\n

What they said: <\/strong>\u201cThis new plant reinforces our presence and structure in the Kingdom, [and Jeddah\u2019s] strategic location allows for better access to the consumer market and business partners,\u201d says CEO of BRF Arabia Marquinhos Molina.<\/p>\n
