Doha: Baladna has provided a letter of commitment to enter into an investment partnership with Malaysian companies FGV Holdings Berhad and FELCRA Berhad to jointly establish a large-scale, state-of-the-art integrated dairy farm in the Northern Corridor Economic Region in Malaysia.

The letter of intent was delivered on occasion of Prime Minister of Malaysia HE Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s visit to Baladna Farm this week. He and his accompanying ministerial delegation toured Baladna’s state-of-the-art facilities and met with H E Dr. Sheikh Faleh Bin Nasser Bin Ahmad Al Thani, Minister of Environment and Climate Change, as well as Baladna board members and top officials of the agricultural company to discuss their strategic collaboration.

Commenting on the occasion, Piet Hilarides, Baladna CEO said: “We are honored to receive the Malaysian delegation at Baladna and extend our bilateral relationship in the agricultural sector. We are continuously working to reinforce Baladna’s international reach, in line with our dedication to consumer wellness through quality, locally-produced products.”

The integrated dairy facility will be climate-independent, using world-class technology and quality management systems. Once production commences in 2024, it will operate at a capacity of 100 million liters of fresh milk by the first year of operations in the Chuping Agro Valley
