New projects set to ramp up flour milling capacity
A proliferation of flour mills in the Sultanate is set to boost flour production capacity to 3,800 metric tonnes (MT) per day, representing nearly a doubling of capacity from 2015 when Oman had only two plants — Oman Flour Mills in Muscat and Salalah Flour Mills in Dhofar Governorate. According to Salalah Flour Mills, currently the nation’s largest miller with a daily milling capacity of 1,500 MT, two new mills have set up operations in Salalah over the past two years. Al Raseed Flour Mill and Al Reef Flour Mill, with a capacity of 200 MT and 300 MT respectively, have come on stream at Raysut Industrial Estate. In addition, a fifth plant — Al Khajeej Flour Mill — is preparing to launch operations with a capacity of 500 MT per day at Suhar Industrial Estate during the current quarter. Also on the anvil is the government-backed Suhar Flour Mill, currently under construction at Suhar Port with a capacity of 500 MT.
