–shares common vision with Guyana in achieving food security

THE Emirates Future Group, one of the largest Emirati companies working to achieve food security globally, has expressed an interest in investing in Guyana’s livestock industry.

According to information from the Office of the President, Emirates Future Group has intentions of investing in red meat, the trade of livestock and related fields.
Their interest ranges from raising livestock on farms, building and managing slaughterhouses and logistics services, all the way to the stage of red meat reaching consumers.

This plan was shared with President, Dr. Irfaan Ali, and other senior officials while they were in the United Arab Emirates this week for the Caribbean Investment Forum (CIF2022), and the Global Business Forum LATAM.

The President and team met with Director of Investment Projects at the Emirates Future Group, Jalal Suleiman Abu Sameer and the company’s Deputy General Manager, Yasser Muhammad Ali. Their presence was on behalf of the General Manager of the group, Eng. Hussein Ghosheh.

At the meeting, the investment opportunities available in Guyana were discussed, and many promising opportunities were reviewed, which in turn would achieve the vision of the South American nation and the UAE in the field of joint food security for the two countries.

Food security has become the focus of attention of governments around the world, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, which has put supply chains to great and unusual challenges.

The Emirates Future Group has decades of experience in the field of food security, in addition to its huge capabilities in supplying the countries of the world with basic foodstuffs. It is considered one of the largest international companies working in the field of livestock, in addition to having the largest livestock transport fleet around the world.

Sameer expressed his thanks to the leadership and government of Guyana for providing the opportunity for leading Emirati companies to be a strategic partner in developing the agriculture and livestock sector in Guyana, and for extending bridges of co-operation between the two countries.

This, he said, serves the vision of the interests of the two brotherly peoples and develops the co-operation to high levels that achieve the goals of food security.
