''Tanmiah'' Embarks on One Million Tree Initiative

In line with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 in achieving self-sufficiency and responsible sustainable production, ''Tanmiah'' Saudi Food Company, listed in Saudi Stocks Market, sought to be proactive in aligning its strategy with the goals of the Kingdom’s vision.

Accordingly, the One Million Tree Initiative was launched in Shaqra Governorate in March 2019 and nearly 200,000 trees have already been planted in the first phase, in line with the company’s goal to plant one million trees by 2025.

The impact will include the elimination of 1.2B KGs of Carbon dioxide (CO2); 10B liters of waste water and 1B KGs of solid waste recycled.

In the second phase, the company seeks tree plantation and enhancing the quality of life in the region. To achieve this goal, treated water from poultry waste and treated bio-organic manure will be used to plant and irrigate trees.

This comes as part of the company's objective to create an innovative and a sustainable circular approach to achieve zero-net emissions, which the Kingdom and other countries strive for.
