07 July 2010

BAHRAIN - Preparations are in full swing to establish a private poultry company in Bahrain as part of a BD10 million ($26.5 million) investment project.

The new firm is expected to produce up to 10 million chickens per annum and meet a substantial portion of consumers' needs at affordable prices, reports TradeArabia.

Industry and Commerce Minister Dr Hassan Fakhro yesterday received Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and Industry food committee chairman Ibrahim Al Daissi who updated him on the project.

He also introduced members of the constituent committee in charge of setting up the company.
