Who We Are
Founded in 1998, Al Sulaiteen Agricultural & Industrial Complex (SAIC) Farm stands as one of Qatar's most prominent and well-established commercial agricultural enterprises.
Situated in Umm Salal Ali under Farm No. 301, the farm covers approximately 40 hectares of meticulously organized farmland, located 20 kilometers north of Doha. Guided by the forward-thinking leadership of Chairman Mr. Abdullah Salim Al Sulaiteen, the farm has evolved from its traditional roots into a cutting-edge, integrated production facility.
Designed using a modern, scientific philosophy, the farm brings together a wide array of agricultural pursuits: vegetable cultivation, floriculture, plant nurseries, and animal husbandry, all served by an internal road network and two on-site water desalination plants with a combined capacity of 1,000 m³/day.
Al Sulaiteen Agricultural & Industrial Complex is now a center for collaboration and agricultural innovation. We were the first in Qatar to introduce hydroponic agriculture, and the first Qatari company to achieve the GLOBAL G.A.P. certification. We work with top national partners including Qatar University, Hamad Bin Khalifa University, and Qatar Science & Technology Park, alongside global organizations such as FAO, ICARDA, ACSAD, and the World Vegetable Center.
Our Vision & Mission
Our Vision
To be the leading Qatari farm in providing fresh and healthy products year-round through modern agricultural systems (hydroponics and cooled greenhouses), while ensuring quality, transparency, and safe food, contributing to the achievement of sustainable food security for Qatar.
Our Mission
As the first Qatari farm to hold the GLOBAL G.A.P. certificate, we apply the highest standards of Good Agricultural Practices to produce fresh, contaminant-free vegetables. Using hydroponic and cooled greenhouse technologies, we deliver consistent, premium produce directly from our farm to the Qatari consumer's table, guaranteeing freshness, high nutritional value, and complete food safety.
