Kerry has officially opened a new 21,500-square-foot facility at its Jeddah operation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The company has invested over €80m in the region over the past four years and this new facility, which is Kerry's in the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey (MENAT) region, is one of the most modern and efficient in the world and will produce great tasting, nutritious and sustainable food ingredients which will be distributed across the Middle East. Through the new facility, which currently employs 130 people, Kerry will utilise its global innovation technologies that are adapted to local tastes to help food and beverage companies meet the growing consumer demand in the region for healthier, tastier and more sustainable food and beverages, particularly in snack, meat and bakery sectors.
