(MENAFN) On Sunday, Almarai Saudi Company announced the completion of its Acquisition of Etmam Logistics Company for 182 million riyals (USD48.5 million), as per a disclosure made to the Saudi Stock Exchange. Etmam Logistics specializes in providing storage and distribution services for frozen products, a strategic area for Almarai's expansion.

Founded in 1977, Almarai sees this acquisition as a significant enhancement to its ability to serve customers across Saudi Arabia with a broader range of frozen products.
