Freshly Frozen Foods Factory LLC is a privately held UAE-based frozen food manufacturer and supplier, founded in 2003 and headquartered in the Jebel Ali Industrial Area of Dubai. The company operates two processing units totaling 110,000 square feet with four dedicated processing lines for poultry, seafood, vegetables, and meat, yielding an annual production capacity of 15,000 metric tons.

The company's core technology centers on Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) processing for quality and shelf-life preservation, supported by a "NO MDM Guaranteed" product positioning that differentiates it from standard frozen food manufacturers. Key certifications include HACCP, EU, BRC, USFDA, and ISO 22000:2005, enabling export market access alongside the core UAE/Middle East foodservice base. The company also offers MSC-certified sustainable seafood and antibiotic/hormone-free poultry lines to address clean-label and sustainability demand.

The business model is B2B wholesale, supplying foodservice distributors, hotels, restaurants, catering companies, industrial food processors, retail chains, healthcare institutions, and convenience stores across the UAE and broader Middle East region. Revenue is generated through one-time wholesale sales of branded products and custom product development / private label manufacturing services for industrial, retail, restaurant, and convenience store buyers. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with B2B foodservice norms. The go-to-motion is consultative enterprise field sales, with the company deploying trained professionals to provide menu development consulting and custom product design for foodservice operators.
