Idea

Khayrat Yafe’ Poultry Feed Company is a business focused on addressing the challenges faced by poultry farm owners in Yemen's Lahj Governorate. The company seeks to provide high-quality poultry feed with precise specifications, aiming to solve the ongoing problem of limited access to nutritious feed. There is a particular concern over poultry deaths caused by the inadequacies of available feed, which often lacks essential components and treatments. By producing feed that meets high standards, the company aims to support local poultry farms and contribute to the overall development of the region's agricultural sector.

Challenge

Khayrat Yafe’ Poultry Feed Company is addressing significant challenges in the poultry farming industry, such as the limited availability of high-quality feed and the high costs associated with poor-quality products. The company is also tackling the problem of poultry deaths due to inadequate nutrition. The lack of a sufficient number of feed factories in the region further exacerbates these issues. By setting up its own feed production facility, Khayrat Yafe’ aims to ensure consistent supply and quality while offering competitive pricing for poultry farmers in Lahj Governorate.

Solution

Khayrat Yafe’ Poultry Feed Company offers a solution to the feed shortage and quality issues in the region by creating poultry feed using modern, innovative methods and specialized formulations. The feed produced is designed to meet the nutritional needs of poultry, improving their health and reducing mortality rates. Currently, there is only one feed factory in the region, which does not provide adequate quality or quantities. To address this, the company plans to establish its own feed factory with a production capacity of 20 tons per hour. This initiative will not only meet the demand for high-quality feed but will also ensure a consistent and competitive product for the region’s poultry farmers.

FasterCapital backs Khairat Yafi’ to solve feed shortages with high-spec poultry rations

FasterCapital backs Khairat Yafi’ to solve feed shortages with high-spec poultry rations

Lahj, Yemen & Dubai, UAE - Oct 28, 2025 

Khairat Yafa Feed Company and FasterCapital today announced a strategic partnership through the Equitypilot program to establish a 20-ton/hour poultry feed mill and laboratory in Lahj Governorate, Yemen. The collaboration addresses urgent regional feed shortages, improves flock survival with medicated, lab-validated rations, and accelerates commercial scale-up through technical, operational and fundraising support.

Market opportunity & problem statement

The MENA poultry-feed market is expanding as demand for affordable protein rises and smallholder farms seek reliable inputs. In southern Yemen, farmers face acute shortages of high-quality compound feed and repeated flock losses tied to substandard rations and limited local supply a white space created by a single, under-capacitated local mill. Khairat Yafi’ targets this inefficiency by localizing production, cutting lead times, lowering costs and improving bird health outcomes for dozens of commercial and backyard farms across the region.

Startup solution & differentiation

Khairat Yafi’ produces precision-formulated poultry feeds augmented with essential medications and additives, developed under veterinary supervision and laboratory validation. The company has piloted formulations that demonstrated strong market acceptance and reduced mortality on customer farms. With proprietary feed recipes, in-house lab protocols and an emphasis on traceable quality control, Khairat Yafi’ differentiates on product efficacy, local availability and competitive pricing. The planned 20 t/hr plant will end chronic supply gaps, deliver consistent nutrition, and enable scale to meet projected regional demand.

FasterCapital partnership value

Under the Equitypilot program, FasterCapital will provide Khairat Yafi’ with growth capital, technical mentorship, business model refinement, and investor introductions to accelerate plant commissioning and market entry. FasterCapital’s selective screening and global portfolio track record validate Khairat Yafi’s model and speed execution through product, regulatory and fundraising assistance. The partnership targets plant commissioning within 9–12 months and an initial commercial rollout across Lahj and neighboring governorates within 18 months.

Executive quotes

“Hesham Zreik: “We back companies that solve real market pain with deliverable, defensible technology and sound teams. Khairat Yafi’ combines field-proven formulations, clear market demand and a pragmatic scaling plan making it an ideal Equitypilot cohort member. FasterCapital will provide the capital and network to turn local validation into regional leadership.” Hesham Zreik, investor and Equitypilot advisor.

Abdullah Hussein Haidera, CEO of Khairat Yafi’: “Our mission is to put reliable, high-quality feed into the hands of Yemeni farmers so flocks survive and businesses thrive. Partnering with FasterCapital accelerates our factory build, strengthens our lab capabilities, and helps us reach thousands of farmers who currently lack access to consistent, life-saving feed.”

Growth trajectory & future plans

Near-term priorities include finalizing plant engineering, completing regulatory certification, and scaling production to the 20 t/hr target. Khairat Yafi’ plans phased geographic expansion across southern Yemen, followed by exports to nearby markets. Initial capital needs are being raised through Equitypilot introductions; follow-on growth funding is planned 12–18 months post-commissioning to support distribution and working capital.
