History

Founded in 2005 as an Egyptian shareholding company, Riyada’s core business principal is to produce high quality cheese that satisfies customer needs in the Egyptian and Middle Eastern Markets. Riyada is the Arabic term for “excellence”. And the name was chosen carefully to reflect the foundation upon which the company is built upon. In Riyada, our main objective is to be the leader in the production and marketing of special types of cheese that provide excellent value for our esteemed customers.

Actual processing initiated towards the end of 2005, processing 20tons of milk per day. As demand continues to increase for our current and new products, Riyada has raised processing capacity on a yearly basis and today, Riyada is processing up to 130 tons of milk per day. Currently, Riyada’s product mix includes: Natural cheese (Edam, Gouda, and flavored Gouda), Processed Cheese (Blocks, Slices, and Cream Cheese Spread), Oriental Cheese (Akawi and Magdoula), Loose and tetra pack White Cheese (Feta, Istanbolli, Sandwich, and Spicy), Mozzarella Cheese (Blocks and Shredded), and Butter (10g Mini Tubes).

Riyada has been established as sister company of Soudanco S.A.E; a leading company in the importation and distribution of  food products in the Egyptian Market for almost 40 years.
