United Foods Company (UFC) – Introduction and background

United Foods Company (UFC) is one of the UAE’s oldest food manufacturers, producing and marketing edible oils, fats, ghee, margarine and a broad range of processed consumer food products across the GCC and international markets. 

Founded in Dubai in 1976, UFC built its reputation over five decades through a portfolio of own-brand labels, with some of the best-known examples Aseel, Nawar and SuperSun. Expanding beyond basic foodstuff manufacturing, the company is also involved in distribution of global brands, and imports household names such as Oreo, Cadbury, and KitKat to GCC consumers alongside its own-brand processed products.

UFC has been listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) under the ticker symbol UFC since its 2006 IPO. The stock trades as a mid-cap UAE consumer staples play, with performance closely tied to regional food demand and commodity input costs.

Investing in CFDs involves a high degree of risk that you will lose your money due to the use of leverage, particularly in fast moving markets, where a relatively small movement in the price can lead to a proportionately larger movement in the value of your investment. This can result in loses that exceed the funds in your account. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and you should seek independent advice if necessary.
