History

Zabeel Feed was established in 1985 as Zabeel Feedmill, a private company owned by HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum with the objective of producing feeds for the different animals of the Maktoum family.

The first ever animal feed manufacturing facility in the Middle East, it was managed by UAE’s pioneer camel veterinarian and nutritionist, Dr. Ahmed Billah since its inception until May 2017. ‘Star Mix’, the famous feed especially designed for the racing camels, was also produced under his guidance during this period.

The launch of Dubai Racing Club and Emirates Equestrian Federation in 1992 further captured the brand’s pioneering spirit when Zabeel Feed, always at the forefront of change, started developing a wide range of customized feeds for flat racing, endurance and breeding horses to support UAE’s flourishing equestrian scene, thereby strengthening its role as an industry leader.

A fully owned subsidiary of Meydan Group LLC, the company opened its doors to commercial sales within and outside the UAE in 2006 and has since produced more than 60 blended mixes for performance horses and camels, livestock production and other animals, based on the latest nutritional research and technology.

In 2018, Zabeel Feed’s commenced operation in its newly built state-of-the-art facility boasting five independent production lines. Offering the most modern manufacturing technology in the Middle East, the new site takes the brand a step closer to realising its vision of becoming the breakthrough innovator in animals’ nutrition industry.
