World-class value-added frozen food manufacturer, Global Food Industries (GFI) was  the proud recipient of the UAE Innovation Award. Part of Albatha Holding, one of the largest conglomerates in the UAE, GFI was the only food company to win the prestigious award, despite strong competition from well-known organisations from all verticals of the private sector, including education, energy, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, real estate, retail, sports, technology, tourism & hospitality, transport and non-profit. The UAE Innovation Award, organised by the Dubai Quality Group, is a unique award to recognize innovation in private sector companies throughout the UAE.

Speaking at the event, Jacek Plewa, General Manager, Global Food Industries, commented, “We are extremely proud to be the recipient of the UAE Innovation Award. Being recognized for our innovation capabilities is extremely gratifying.  We, at Global Food, always strive to provide the most rewarding culinary experience for our consumers. It is through our relentless efforts and the utilisation of innovative processes that we are able to provide products that are a healthy alternative. The UAE Innovation award complemented along with the two major awards at Gulfood is a great start to the year. It will set a positive tone for the rest of the year in terms of meeting and exceeding consumer expectations”.
