Saudia Dairy and Foodstuff Company, known as SADAFCO, and the Saudi Authority for Industrial Cities and Technology Zones, or MODON, have signed a memorandum of understanding to advance sustainable development and enhance collaborative efforts.
Brian Strong, SADAFCO’s chief transformation officer, signed the agreement with Majed bin Rafed Al-Arqoobi, MODON’s CEO. The partnership signifies a commitment to mutual knowledge-sharing, operational collaboration, and environmental responsibility.
The MoU outlines several key areas of collaboration:
• Knowledge exchange: SADAFCO and MODON will exchange expertise to enhance efficiencies and develop best practices in their respective sectors.
• Joint workshops and training: Both organizations will host workshops and training sessions that cater to shared goals, enhancing skill development and fostering continuous learning.
