According to the company statement, it aims to increase the production capacity at its plant in Sharjah Airport International Free Zone (SAIF Zone).
SAIF Zone has noted that the company’s expansion plans in Sharjah reflect the quality of facilities and privileges being provided by the free zone, which is widely known for its unique business environment conducive for business growth and expansion, state-of-the-art infrastructure, world-class logistics services, strategic location and proximity to airports and global markets.
Mr. Rayan Mohsen, Director-General of Bano Puratos in the UAE said, “Bano’s production facility in SAIF Zone commenced operations last February and is fully automated. It has been equipped with the latest storage, preservation, and transportation technologies following the highest international and local standards in terms of effective safety, specifications, and health requirements.”

“The growing interest of international companies to base their operations in Sharjah, particularly in the SAIF Zone, proves once again that our attractive facilities, exceptional services, and privileges are unparalleled and can effectively support the aspirations of businesses in achieving their economic goals. Despite the modernity of its factory, Bano decided to further expand its operations, something which highlights the efficiency of investments in SAIF Zone. This also means the company will be better equipped to meet the growing demand for its products and solutions associated with the food industry not only locally but also in regional markets. SAIF Zone is doing its utmost to support the emirate’s economic diversification plans and sustainable growth, in particular, consolidate Sharjah’s position as a global hub for quality industries and promote the UAE’s national strategy for industry and advanced technology.”
