Mukul Shukla, general manager - tna Middle East:

“Food consumption in the GCC countries is expected to grow between 3 to 4 per cent annually over the next few years due to the region’s ongoing rise in population and increasing disposable incomes.”

“A lot of food manufacturers are therefore looking for a partner that can help them improve production efficiencies to meet this demand, widen their product portfolio to cater for new tastes or improve traceability to adhere to stricter food quality and safety standards.”

“Thanks to our immense growth over the last 35 years we now offer one of the most dynamic and forward-thinking portfolios on the market.”

“Whether manufacturers are looking to speed up their packaging line, expand their snack flavors or boost the output of their French fry business, our cutting edge technology covers all their processing and packaging needs.”
