“Nothing is impossible if you’re determined to be the best”
The philosophy that defines Dubai inspired the late Saif Obaid Al Hathboor over 30 years ago to pioneer the hygiene packed nuts industry in the region. Following the unification of the Emirates and the subsequent oil boom, Dubai was set for a new era of prosperity. In this fertile environment, Mr. Al Hathboor took the giant leap from a traditional enterprise onto to the path of becoming a contemporary business house.
In 1979, along with his partner Mr Baghwan Bablani, Mr Al Hathboor established our first nut processing plant. Under the name of “Best Food” the company started off by roasting, frying and packaging premium quality nuts in nitrogen flushed aluminium packs and vacuum packed tins. From there it’s been a story of one accomplishment after another for Best Food.
In 2004, Best Food made its first foray into retail distribution and today Best Food has 7 retail shops offering customers fresh coffee, nuts, chocolates, dates and cookies. In 2005, Best Food further enhanced its business profile with a chocolate processing unit.
Today, after a journey of commitment, innovation and enterprise Best Food is today a leader in the nut category across the Middle East.
We aim to become a multi-faceted group with a high degree of diversification in products and brands, each of which represents the ultimate in quality, taste and nutrition.
Constantly evolving every aspect of our enterprise, we shall create opportunities where they don’t exist to realise our absolute potential in exceeding customer’s expectations and setting new standards.
