The company press office reported they signed a memorandum of understanding with Saudi officials to build the plant. The announcement was made during president Jair Bolsonaro&#8217;s travel to Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>BRF owns brands such as Sadia and Perdig\u00e3o of chicken meat and products, and Qualy of margarine, and others. The company reports that the plant consolidates BRF\u2019s presence in the Saudi market, where it\u2019s since the mid-70s with Sadia. The Saudi plant will produce high value-added products such as halal poultry burgers, sausages and breaded and marinated cuts, the company reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe halal market is a priority for BRF, and strengthening our presence in Saudi Arabia is part of our long-term commitment to the region. We support the Saudi government initiative to increase local production, and the investment we announce now with SAGIA (Saudi Arabian general Investment Authority) is proof of our desire to actively participate in the development and growth of local aviculture,\u201d BRF Global CEO Lorival Luz was quoted as saying in the press release.<\/p>\n<p>According to BRF, the project is in line with the company\u2019s strategic plan and doesn\u2019t change its financial deleverage path for the next few years. BRF is in more than 140 countries, including a producing plant in another Gulf country, the United Arab Emirates, where it produces processed products too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-260971\">Press Release<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brazilian company that produces famous poultry brands such as Sadia and Perdig\u00e3o signed a memorandum with Saudi officials to build a plant in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":260971,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[107],"tags":[10091,11911,12275,12278,11912,5307,11914,9549,9557],"class_list":{"0":"post-260973","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business-opportunities","8":"tag-brf-en","9":"tag-brf-en-2","10":"tag-brf-arabia-saudita","11":"tag-brf-saudi-arabia","12":"tag-carne-de-frango-en","13":"tag-chicken-meat","14":"tag-frango-en-2","15":"tag-frango-en","16":"tag-poultry-en"},"wps_subtitle":"Brazilian company that produces famous poultry brands such as Sadia and Perdig\u00e3o signed a memorandum with Saudi officials to build a plant in the country.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260973","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=260973"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260973\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/260971"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=260973"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=260973"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=260973"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
