Riyadh: The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) announced a 60% increase in the availability of feed products in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during the first half of 2025, compared to the same period of the previous year. This substantial growth reflects SFDA's continued efforts to enhance product availability and improve service quality, aligning with its fourth strategic plan. Additionally, supporting the objectives of the Health Sector Transformation Program, a key initiative of Saudi Vision 2030.

According to Saudi Press Agency, the number of feed products available during the first half of 2025 reached approximately 5,022, up from 3,141 during the first half of 2024. The authority explained that this growth resulted from a comprehensive set of measures to increase the number of available products. The most prominent measure was the adoption of the "GHAD" platform for all stakeholders, which significantly facilitated access to electronic services. Other contributing actions included re-engineering procedures, simplifying the registration process, and reducing requirements and conditions without compromising product safety.
