In line with the UAE’s Green Agenda 2030 and the upcoming COP28 Summit (United Nations Climate Change Conference), United Foods Company is on a mission to create a more sustainable future for our planet. We recognize the impact that our operations have on the environment, and we are constantly striving to reduce our carbon footprint and minimize waste.
Here’s how we are moving forward in our sustainability journey:
– Renewable Energy: We’ve tactically integrated renewable energy sources into our operations, reducing our carbon footprint and reliance on non-renewable resources.
In 2020, we partnered with ‘Yellow Energy’ – a leading provider of renewable energy solutions – to install a 2,000 KW Solar Power Plant on the rooftop of our factory in Jebel Ali. The plant has been operational for over a year now and has reduced our reliance on the grid, resulting in significant cost savings. This project has been a significant milestone in our journey, and we are proud to have taken this step towards a greener future.
– Innovative Waste Reduction: Through cutting-edge technologies, we’re actively recycling and reducing waste across our supply chain, minimizing our environmental impact.
– Eco-friendly Production: Our production processes are designed with the environment in mind, promoting sustainability from the ground up.
– Sustainable Packaging: We understand the crucial role of packaging in reducing waste and pollution. Our ongoing efforts include exploring compostable and biodegradable options, reducing overall packaging usage, and enhancing recyclability.
Fethi Khiari, CEO at United Foods Company, said: “Our commitment to sustainability remains unshakable. We believe that as a food manufacturing company, it’s our responsibility to implement more eco-friendly practices in our company.”
So, join us in making a positive impact on our planet, one step at a time.
