UAE Sugar Corporation Expands into Kazakhstan's Sweet Marketplace
Almaty, Kazakhstan is gearing up for a major change as one of the world's top sugar companies, Al Khaleej Sugar from the United Arab Emirates, prepares to kickstart a new sugar plant project in the region. The scoop was revealed during a meeting on April 27 between Marat Sultangaziyev, the Almaty Region’s governor, and Sheikh Jamal Al Ghurair, managing director of Al Khaleej Sugar.
The proposed sugar plant will face several challenges, chief among them, securing a reliable water source for the plant's sugar beet cultivation. To tackle this, Al Khaleej Sugar is enlisting professional consultants in the field of hydrology to conduct thorough studies of the region's hydrological resources. These studies are crucial for developing innovative water supply solutions, aiming to ensure the plant's success [1][2].
Location-wise, a land plot near the city of Konayev stands out as the most ideal due to its strategic logistical advantages. However, it's not all smooth sailing; water supply remains a major concern and needs to be properly addressed [1][2].
On the bright side, the investors aren't holding back when it comes to going green. A focus on clean energy sees Al Khaleej Sugar considering the construction of wind power plants to make the enterprise fully self-sufficient and minimize its environmental impact. It's all about seriously reducing its carbon footprint [1][2].
Sheikh Al Ghurair, the man behind this green mission, is no stranger to success. His portfolio spans industries like sugar production, construction, real estate, and more. Together with the team, they are working diligently to establish a shining example of sustainable and environmentally friendly sugar production in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
By adopting an all-renewable energy approach, Al Khaleej Sugar aims to kickstart a fully autonomous enterprise that produces sugar using only renewable energy sources. An approach like this not only helps in reducing dependence on traditional fossil fuels but also paves the way for a greener future [1][2].
The proposed sugar plant, initially revealed during a meeting in Almaty, Kazakhstan, is planning to address the challenges in securing a reliable water source by consulting hydrology professionals for studies on the region's hydrological resources, particularly focusing on the area near Konayev. Sheikh Al Ghurair, a successful entrepreneur in various industries such as sugar production and real estate, is spearheading this green mission, aiming to establish a sustainable and environmentally friendly sugar production business in Kazakhstan by constructing wind power plants for clean energy. To further this goal, Al Khaleej Sugar aims to develop a fully autonomous enterprise that produces sugar using only renewable energy sources.
