Ghitha Holding reports revenue of US$1.52 billion as profits rise in 2025

Operating and gross profit expanded on pricing measures, cost controls and portfolio changes

UAE – Ghitha Holding PJSC said it recorded double-digit revenue growth in 2025 as the Abu Dhabi-listed food and agriculture group expanded production capacity and completed a series of portfolio changes.

The company reported revenue of US$1.52 billion for the year ended December 31, up 13.5% from the previous year, citing growth across its core operations and contributions from businesses acquired during and before the reporting period.

Gross profit rose by 23.5% to about US$327 million, while operating profit increased by 39.4% to nearly US$86.8 million, showing tighter pricing controls, lower operating costs and a shift toward higher margin products.

According to the company, the results followed a year of consolidation, including the establishment of the Al Ain Farms Group and the integration of Al Jazira Poultry and Arabian Farms into its dairy and protein operations.

These changes were accompanied by a reorganisation of its agriculture and fresh produce activities, with Al Hashemeya transferred to NRTC Food Holding as part of efforts to adjust sourcing and distribution structures.

Ghitha also expanded its fresh and organic food segment during the year through the acquisition of Ripe Organic, adding new products to its consumer offering.

Chief executive Falal Ameen said the company spent 2025 focused on execution and internal restructuring, resulting in a platform designed to support continued growth across food and agriculture categories.

He said the group plans to prioritise further integration across its operations, invest in digital systems and allocate capital selectively to areas where it already has established market positions.

Earlier financial updates had shown similar momentum, with Ghitha reporting a quarterly operating profit of US$72.9 million, a 41.1% increase from the same period a year earlier.

That performance was linked to margin improvement initiatives and the restructuring of the fruits and vegetables unit under NRTC Food Holding, which management said improved coordination across the supply chain.

In the protein and dairy segment, the acquisition of Al Jazira Poultry and the consolidation of Arabian Farms increased production volumes and broadened revenue sources.

Ghitha has also helped establish the Al Ain Farms Group, a national initiative that brings together several food brands to support domestic food production.

In October 2025, parent company International Holding Company announced plans to combine Ghitha with 2PointZero Holding and Multiply Group into a single investment platform with assets valued at about US$32.6 billion.

Ghitha, which is incorporated in Abu Dhabi, operates brands including Al Ain Farms, Al Jazira Poultry, Arabian Farms and Al Ajban Poultry, with activities spanning dairy, protein, fresh produce and seafood.
