Abu Dhabi’s Food and Water Abundance Development Association (AGWA) has teamed up with “Believer Meats” to enhance the region’s leadership in processed meat production, establish a regional headquarters for the company in the capital, and promote sustainable food systems. This move aims to leverage Abu Dhabi’s strategic location and abundant resources to drive growth in the food sector across the Middle East and North Africa.
Believer Meats plans to set up its regional headquarters in Abu Dhabi, focusing on developing innovative solutions through laboratory-grown meat production. The collaboration between AGWA and Believer Meats will attract leading companies and talents to develop sustainable food technologies, positioning Abu Dhabi as a global hub for food and water security initiatives.
The partnership between AGWA and Believer Meats will support AGWA’s efforts to address modern dietary patterns, contribute to global food security, and promote effective supply chains. The company will employ advanced technology such as algae farming, reverse osmosis technology, and alternative proteins to improve traditional food production methods while minimizing environmental impact.
As part of the collaboration, Believer Meats will focus on regulatory frameworks for halal certificates and establishing an Innovation Academy for future professionals in the food industry. This partnership aligns with Believer Meats’ vision of building a sustainable global food system that addresses challenges such as food security worldwide.
Gustav Berger, CEO of Believer Meats, expressed his excitement about this partnership’s potential to introduce safe, healthy laboratory-grown meat products to new markets. With this collaboration in place, Believer Meats aims to expand its operations beyond the Middle East and North Africa into other regions globally while continuing to innovate within the food industry.
Overall, this collaboration is an important step towards establishing Abu Dhabi as a global leader in sustainable agriculture while promoting modern dietary patterns that meet evolving consumer needs.
