The company said it has incorporated National Foods Gulf (FZE) in Sharjah, making it a fully owned overseas subsidiary.

The filing states that the move forms part of National Foods’ international business strategy and has been disclosed in accordance with the Securities Act, 2015 and PSX regulations.
