Ektifa Brings Sharjah’s Organic Excellence to the Global Stage at SIAL Paris
The Sharjah Agricultural and Livestock Production Establishment showcases its pioneering integrated approach to sustainable food production at Europe's premier agricultural exhibition.
The Sharjah Agricultural and Livestock Production Establishment, trading as Ektifa, is presenting its considerable achievements in organic food production and sustainable agricultural innovation at SIAL Paris 2026, one of the world’s foremost gatherings of food industry leaders and innovators. Taking place from 17th to 21st October at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre, the showcase represents a significant opportunity for the emirate to cement its international standing in the rapidly expanding organic sector.
Ektifa’s exhibition strategy centres upon its comprehensive, integrated system that encompasses every stage of food production, from initial cultivation and livestock farming through to processing, packaging and distribution. This holistic approach exemplifies the establishment’s commitment to efficiency, sustainability and resource optimisation, particularly in response to the increasingly complex challenges posed by global climate conditions.
Operating under the strategic vision of “From Sharjah to the World,” Ektifa seeks to elevate international recognition of Sharjah’s capabilities whilst forging meaningful partnerships with leading agricultural and food production entities across Europe and beyond. The exhibition platform provides an invaluable opportunity to articulate the emirate’s considerable progress in several key areas, notably organic dairy production, poultry farming and wheat cultivation, alongside its pioneering development of innovative food processing industries and environmentally responsible practices.
Dr. Eng. Khalifa Musabeh Al Teneiji, Chairman of the Department of Agriculture and Livestock and Chief Executive Officer of Ektifa, emphasised that the participation underscores Sharjah’s unwavering commitment to advancing sustainable food production through technological innovation and strategic resource management. The exhibition, he noted, provides an exceptional platform for exchanging expertise with international industry specialists, whilst simultaneously identifying prospective avenues for collaborative enterprise and mutual development.
The presentation highlights Sharjah’s broader ambitions to expand the international reach of its locally produced food products, reinforcing the emirate’s increasingly prominent position as a centre of agricultural innovation and sustainable organic food production excellence. Through such international engagements, Ektifa continues to demonstrate the emirates’ dedication to pioneering practices that balance productivity with environmental stewardship.
