This distinctive advantage, combined with the company’s commitment to quality and innovation, was at the heart of DFI’s showcase at GULFOOD 2025.
DFI presented an extensive range of fresh and wholesome products, including premium dairy items, a variety of refreshing juices, and premium poultry selections. Additionally, the company showcased its premium edible oils under Dhofar brand, reinforcing its dedication to delivering nutritious, responsibly sourced products tailored to evolving consumer needs.
Vipul Bahl, Acting CEO of Dhofar Foods and Investment, commented on this milestone event, stating:
