Al Islami expands meat shop network in the UAE

Notes and media contacts

About Al Islami Foods:
Established as Co-Op Islami in 1981 to cater to the growing demand for halal food in the Arab world, Al Islami Foods was formed as a result of the long relentless efforts commenced in the early seventies when Hajj Saeed Bin Ahmad Lootah instituted Dubai Co-operative Society.

Starting with its successful frozen chicken product line, Al Islami Foods further expanded its operations to include processed meat.
In 1991, Dubai Co-operative Society's efforts were culminated by establishing its 'Co-Op Islami' meat processing plant in Jebel Ali Free Zone. This plant is considered a recognizable breakthrough as it became the real producer of a variety of food products under the name 'Co-Op Islami'.

In 2006, Co-Op Islami was re-launched as Al Islami Foods in an effort to propel the company to new heights of success. Now, Al Islami Foods products are considered as a quality benchmark trusted by consumers across the UAE and the GCC, and this has made it one of the best and most preferred brands in the region.

It seeks not to realize the highest profit, but to rather provide its members with assistance, unlike profit institutions. This has resulted in increased productions, improved quality of goods and reduced sale prices, improving living standards and increasing national income. Proving to be a lasting testimony to the power of unity.
