Al Maghali Trading Co. Ltd (Arabic: Al-Mujahli Trading Company Ltd) is a Yemeni food importer based in Naqm Market, Sana'a. Its website states that Hajj Mohammed Ahmed Al-Maghali founded it in 1982 as Al-Maghali Stores in the capital, Sana'a; it later became Al-Maghali Trading and Agencies and grew its import business to become one of the most important importers of food products in Yemen. In 2016 its legal status changed from a sole proprietorship to a limited liability company named Mohammed Ahmed Al-Maghali and Sons Trading Company, under licence No. 130 and Commercial Companies Law No. 22 of 1997; it credits its success to the founder, his sons and its marketing team. The company lists four services: wholesale at its premises, wholesale sales and distribution within Sana'a, wholesale distribution to all governorates, and retail distribution to retail customers and supermarkets. It says it moves its products from stores and warehouses to distribution centres and wholesale and retail shops with a fleet of trucks and transport vehicles supervised by its marketing team, that it owns stores and warehouses in most regions of Yemen built to local and international standards to keep food safe in storage, and that it serves a wide base of wholesalers and retailers across Yemen through its branches, agents and representatives. The company says it imports, sells, distributes and markets all foodstuffs, including milk products, rice, vegetable oils, tea, cake and many kinds of sweets and juices, imported and manufactured by major international factories and companies. It also states that it can supply food for tenders of international relief organisations, service and social sectors, and public and private institutions to the required specifications. The site text does not name specific brands. The company mentions taking part in international food exhibitions including CNR Food in Istanbul, Gulfood, Anuga and Food Africa, and states its commitment to food-safety management principles. It describes its vision as leadership in the Yemeni and regional markets, with its products the consumer's first choice for quality and price, and its mission as being a sustainable food supplier that ensures adequate supply, high-quality imports and consumer protection.
