The Director General of IOFS, HE Prof. Yerlan Baidaulet conducted another meeting with the President and representatives of the Kazakh Research Institute of Processing and Food Industry. The meeting focused on exploring opportunities for collaboration within the framework of the IOFS subsidiary, the International Islamic Food Processing Association (IFPA). Discussions centered around fostering mutually beneficial partnerships and leveraging the expertise and resources of both institutions to enhance the agricultural and food processing sectors within OIC member states.
IOFS also signed an MOU with the Kazakh Scientific Research Institute of Processing Food, focusing on the Institute's close engagement with the IOFS subsidiary, the International Islamic Food Processing Association (IFPA), on the Bakery Supply Chain (BSC) project. BSC is an IOFS initiative that aims to stimulate the flour products and bakery market for long-term development, build a sustainable bakery supply chain for the local market, as well as for export high-value-added products within OIC by using a cluster approach. The project is launching from Kazakhstan to the GCC, as Kazakhstan has the highest potential for wheat and flour, with successful application in other OIC countries where the project would be acceptable to launch. The Kazakh Scientific Research Institute of Processing Food is involved in developing technologies for the making of in-demand flour products from Kazakhstani components.
