Poulta Inc. to partner with Tanmiah Food Company in rolling out AI-driven poultry tech in Saudi Arabia

SAUDI ARABIA – Poulta Inc., a technology company based in Silicon Valley, is joining forces with Saudi Arabia’s Tanmiah Food Company (TFC) to implement a digital overhaul of poultry production systems across the kingdom.

The announcement was made in Riyadh alongside the Saudi-US Investment Forum, an event that coincided with former U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to the country.

Under the agreement, Poulta’s artificial intelligence platform will be introduced across Tanmiah’s vertically integrated poultry operations, covering everything from live bird farming to processing.

The system incorporates Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, real-time data monitoring, and predictive software designed to improve productivity, reduce operating costs, and support higher standards of animal welfare.

According to Poulta CEO Ali Murtaza Solangi, the system helps farm operators access operational data that previously went unnoticed, allowing them to adjust production strategies in real time.

The platform focuses on key performance metrics such as lowering mortality rates, managing feed consumption more precisely, and improving weight gain and output consistency across farms.

Solangi added that the company’s tools enable poultry producers to shift from reactive practices to data-led decision-making, which he said contributed to TFC’s decision to upgrade from client to long-term partner.

By applying Poulta’s precision tools, both companies aim to reduce waste and improve supply chain transparency throughout the poultry sector.

The collaboration is being positioned as one of the largest digital transformation efforts in the region’s livestock industry, reflecting growing investment in agricultural innovation in Saudi Arabia.

Poulta’s system also supports breeding operations by tracking egg production, quality, and hatchability through AI-enhanced sensors and thermal imaging tools.

This project aligns with broader national goals to modernize agriculture while reducing dependency on imports and increasing food security.

The financial terms of the partnership have not been disclosed, but it is part of a wider trend of US-based firms expanding their footprint in Gulf countries through tech-centered ventures.

Saudi Arabia’s poultry industry is one of the largest in the Middle East, and the rollout of this platform is expected to serve as a model for future agri-tech projects in the region.
