Alba’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Al Baqali said: “Despite all odds, we closed 2021 with an exceptional performance by hitting new highs in our production - 1,561,222 metric tonnes and besting 2020 production record of 1,548, 500 metric tonnes.

What makes this milestone even more important for us is that we have nailed it without any single Lost Time Injury (LTI).”

A brief ceremony, attended by Alba’s Executive Management and employees, was held yesterday to commemorate the Company’s all-time production record.

Alba will release its Q4 2021 and Full-Year 2021 Financial Results today.
