Food and agribusiness

A combination of food security concerns and a focus on economic diversification have made agriculture and fisheries an area of priority for government investment in Oman. Agricultural self-sufficiency is one of the main policy goals in the future period as defined by the sector’s primary policy setting body - the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources (MAFWR).

SASLO is retained counsel of some of the largest state-owned agri-food companies, advising them on every facet of food and agribusiness regulation in Oman. These include:

• corporate commercial;
• regulatory compliance;
• tax structuring;
• fund formation;
• environmental issues;
• commercial contracts and supply agreements;
• mergers and acquisitions;
• project finance.
