Balady Poultry Trading Co. is a Saudi Arabian company engaged in the production, processing, and marketing of poultry products. The company operates across the entire value chain, including breeding, hatching, feed manufacturing, and slaughtering, to deliver fresh and frozen chicken to the market. Its operations are primarily focused on meeting domestic demand for high-quality poultry meat.
The company generates revenue primarily from the sale of fresh and frozen chicken products. Its business model is vertically integrated, controlling inputs such as feed and breeding stock to ensure quality and cost efficiency. Revenue is derived from wholesale and retail channels, with a significant portion coming from contracts with supermarkets, restaurants, and food service providers. The recent decline in revenue (-13.96% YoY) reflects challenging market conditions.
Balady operates in the Farm Products industry within the Consumer Defensive sector. It competes with other local poultry producers such as Almarai and Al-Watania. The company holds a moderate market position, with a market cap of 867.24M SAR. Its profitability metrics (gross margin 10.37%, profit margin 4.60%) indicate tight margins typical of the industry. The high debt level (255M SAR) relative to cash (39.57M SAR) suggests significant leverage.
Balady's primary customers are Saudi consumers, retailers, and food service businesses. The company's products are distributed across the Kingdom, with a focus on major cities. As a domestic player, it does not export significantly. The target audience includes households seeking affordable protein and commercial buyers requiring consistent supply. The company's performance is closely tied to local economic conditions and consumer spending on food.
