Big Bird Foods Limited (BBFL) has announced a significant breakthrough in its export business after securing a major supply agreement with a Gulf-based halal food company. The development is expected to substantially strengthen the company’s international presence while creating new opportunities for long-term revenue growth.

According to the company’s disclosure to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), Big Bird Foods will supply raw chicken and further processed poultry products under the new export contract. The agreement is expected to nearly double the company’s existing export volumes, highlighting the growing demand for premium Pakistani halal poultry products in international markets.

Management estimates that, based on current projections, the contract could contribute an additional PKR 1.2 billion in annual revenue. The company also noted that production capacity could be expanded further while introducing additional product categories to capitalize on increasing global demand.

Big Bird Foods described the agreement as another milestone in its export growth strategy. The company pointed to the rapidly expanding global halal food industry, which is currently valued at approximately US$900 billion annually and is projected to exceed US$1.4 trillion by 2034. This trend presents significant long-term opportunities for established halal food producers with internationally compliant processing facilities.

The company also highlighted the positive outlook for Pakistan’s poultry export sector, noting that the country’s annual meat exports are expected to surpass US$500 million in FY26. BBFL believes its expanding international partnerships will not only boost foreign exchange earnings but also diversify its revenue base and reinforce its position in global halal food markets.

The latest export order underscores Big Bird Foods’ commitment to expanding its international footprint and leveraging the rising global demand for high-quality halal poultry products. If successfully executed, the agreement could mark a significant step in the company’s long-term growth and profitability strategy.
