Industrial-grade bakery Wonder Bakery has inaugurated a state-of-the-art Dhs50 million manufacturing and distributing facility at Dubai Industrial City, one of the largest industrial hubs in the region.
The new facility will produce up to 50,000 tonnes of fresh and frozen bakery products and hot and cold kitchen products annually to be distributed to F&B businesses across the UAE and wider region – further boosting Dubai Industrial City’s F&B manufacturing sector.
The factory’s official opening on 9 March was presided over by partners Kaleemullah Khan, Ubaid Memoni and Ahmed Memoni. Saud Abu Alshawareb, Managing Director of Dubai Industrial City, was also in attendance.
The new 62,000 sqft. facility in Dubai Industrial City will create 350 jobs. Wonder Bakery currently supplies its products to hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, airlines, and other F&B businesses.
Wonder Bakery will continue investing in new equipment and infrastructure over the next two years to expand exports to nearly 25 countries across the GCC, United Kingdom, North America and Asia Pacific.
Saud Abu Alshawareb, Managing Director of Dubai Industrial City, said, “Localising food production is a key priority of the UAE government to reinforce our self-reliant economy and safeguard our country from any unexpected disruptions to the supply chain.
“As the region’s largest manufacturing and logistics hub, as well as a strategic driver of the national food security agenda, we are committed to creating an enabling environment that supports businesses in the F&B sector to expand and innovate. Wonder Bakery has witnessed incredible success in Dubai since its formation, and we are delighted to support them in their next phase of growth within our comprehensive community.”
