SFDA: Significant Expansion in Feed Products with 60% Growth in First Half of 2025

2025-12-04

The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) announced a 60% increase in the availability of feed products in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during the first half of 2025, compared to the same period of the previous year. This substantial growth reflects SFDA's continued efforts to enhance product availability and improve service quality, aligning with its Fourth Strategic Plan. Additionally, supporting the objectives of the Health Sector Transformation Program, a key initiative of Saudi Vision 2030.

SFDA revealed that the number of feed products available during the first half of 2025 reached approximately 5,022 items, compared to 3,141 items during the first half of 2024.

SFDA explained that this growth resulted from a comprehensive set of measures implemented to increase the number of available products. The most prominent measure was the adoption of the "GHAD" platform for all stakeholders, which significantly facilitated access to electronic services. Other contributing actions included re-engineering procedures, simplifying the registration process, and reducing requirements and conditions without compromising product safety.

This successful expansion highlights SFDA's effectiveness in leveraging digital transformation and procedural efficiency. By balancing simplified regulation with strict product safety standards, SFDA directly contributes to the economic and sustainable development goals of Vision 2030.
