DUBAI: Award-winning Global Food Industries (GFI), a world-class value-added frozen food manufacturing company and part of Albatha Holding, continues to maintain its market leadership as the first ever Emirati company to produce a diverse range of award-winning tasty and natural healthy food products. The company’s Healthy Farm brand, a range of nutritious food products that have no added monosodium glutamate (MSG), no mechanically deboned meat, no trans-fats, no sugars, no food fillers, no food colouring and no gluten, was developed to cater to the increasing number of consumers in search for a very unique tasting, healthy and nutrition-packed food options amidst a fast-paced lifestyle. Due to its growing popularity, the company has revealed an expansion initiative, the recent launch of Healthy Farm Biscuits and plans to introduce more offerings under the Healthy Farm brand.
The company has revealed that its Healthy Farm initiatives complement the results of a recent survey conducted by Oman Insurance, Bupa Global and YouGov, showing that 94 per cent of children in the UAE have demonstrated more awareness about the significance of healthy living and maintaining a balanced diet. The survey also reveals that 60 per cent of children would eat healthier food under parental supervision.
“We are proud to hold the distinction of being the first Emirati company to offer a healthy range of food products that have been developed to address health and wellness needs of UAE nationals and residents. Our market leadership has further inspired us to continuously innovate and develop newer food products that help improve the quality of life in the UAE and the region,” said Jacek Plewa, General Manager, GFI. “Our Healthy Farm range, which was created to reach family-oriented target markets, has now become a highly-preferred brand of choice for discerning consumers seeking for quality products in line with their health and wellness needs. The overwhelming response has inspired us to reach out to one million consumers within a year to try out our new products–all developed to provide families with a key range of healthy readymade food options for their daily nutrition needs.”
In line with the coming opening of schools, the company has announced that they will be setting up sampling kiosks across major hypermarkets and supermarkets like Lulu, Union Coops, Sharjah Coops, Abu Dhabi Coops and Ajman Coops, to name a few. The move looks to give parents and children a taste of GFI’s healthy offerings.
“We want parents and their children to experience what we are offering—tasty and healthy food that suits their growing needs. Our sampling kiosks, which will be strategically located around key hypermarkets in the UAE, will increase engagement with our brand, educate about Healthy Farm products and consequently offer a healthy eating choice for the whole family in an engaging way,” concluded Plewa.
