DUBAI PHILANTHROPIST ANOSH AHMED PROVIDES £10 MILLION OF ESSENTIAL FOOD AID TO SUPPORT LEBANON'S VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, Oct 29 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dubai Billionaire and founder of PFOAA Anosh Ahmed and its foundation announces today that it is donating ten millions of pounds of essential food to Lebanon. 

“In times of hardship and recovery, no one should face hunger alone. As Lebanon heals from the recent conflict, we are standing with the most vulnerable—children and women—who have been impacted the most. This donation is a step toward bringing nourishment, hope, and dignity to those in need. Together, we can help restore not just meals, but a sense of comfort and compassion in the lives of those who need it most. May this support bring warmth and strength to those rebuilding their lives.” - Anosh Ahmed

About Anosh Ahmed

Anosh Ahmed’s remarkable rise from a modest $4,000 investment to a billionaire agripreneur demonstrates how ambition, innovation, technology, and sustainability can transform the agricultural sector. His journey is a testament to perseverance, bold risk-taking, and a vision that sees agriculture not just as a means of survival, but as a pathway to immense wealth and profound social impact. Today, Anosh is recognized as one of the largest leaseholders of agricultural land across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.

Growing up in a farming family, Anosh was no stranger to the challenges faced by small-scale farmers—low yields, volatile markets, and unpredictable weather. Driven by a desire to change this reality, he leased 100 acres of land from the government on a 39-year agreement at just 18 years old. With a starting capital of $4,000, Anosh navigated the complexities of agriculture, integrating sustainable practices, innovative technologies, and efficient production methods. Over 22 years, his agribusiness has grown to a valuation of $1.8 billion, managing over 50 billion square feet of land and generating diversified revenue streams from farming, processed goods, agri-tech ventures, and long-term real estate leases.

Anosh remains committed to his roots. He established a foundation that provides small-scale farmers with training, technology, and financial support, alongside creating a network of farmer cooperatives to ensure fair pricing and global market access. His legacy has inspired a new generation of farmers to embrace sustainable, modern agriculture. Through workshops, documentaries, and his forthcoming autobiography, From Soil to Success, Anosh continues to share his knowledge and passion, making him a beacon of hope and transformation in the agricultural sector.

HEMOHIM MANUFACTURER KOLMAR BNH RECEIVES NAI CLASSIFICATION FROM THE US FDA

^{HemoHIM G, manufactured by Kolmar BNH and distributed by Atomy (Image: Kolmar BNH)}


SEOUL, South Korea, Oct 22 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- ‘HemoHim,’ an immune-boosting health supplement from Kolmar BNH (KRX: 200130), has earned international recognition for its quality from both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), enhancing its credibility in the global marketplace.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241021625609/en/

 

Kolmar BNH announced that its Sejong plant obtained a No Action Indicated (NAI) classification following an inspection by the U.S. FDA in September. This classification, which confirms that the facility fully complies with U.S. Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) standards for quality control, has further intensified Kolmar BNH’s competitiveness as a leading global Original Development Manufacturer (ODM) in the health supplement industry.

The FDA inspection was conducted to evaluate Kolmar BNH’s quality management capabilities, particularly in response to the increasing exports of HemoHim to the U.S. The NAI classification reflects a comprehensive evaluation of key factors, including manufacturing processes, hygiene standards, quality control procedures, and employee training. HemoHim, a low-acid liquid dietary supplement, underwent extensive testing, including assessments of raw material quality management, pH levels, and stability, to achieve perfect scores across all these criteria.

HemoHim’s quality has previously been recognized in Australia, where the Sejong plant obtained Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certification from the TGA in 2021. The TGA, responsible for regulating pharmaceuticals and healthcare products (health supplements) in Australia, issues GMP certification based on an extensive evaluation of product efficacy, safety, and the suitability of the production processes. Furthermore, under the Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) between Australia and Europe, products certified by the TGA benefit from streamlined export procedures within Europe.

To meet the Australian TGA’s GMP standards, Kolmar BNH implemented a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) at the Sejong plant that aligns with international GMP guidelines for pharmaceutical production and quality control. The company also introduced a real-time production monitoring system and conducted quality tests that far exceeded Korean regulatory standards, ensuring defect-free products. Through these combined efforts, the company earned recognition for its reliable pharmaceutical quality.

Building on its success with FDA and TGA certifications, Kolmar BNH plans to expedite HemoHim's expansion into global markets. Launched in 2006, HemoHim is Korea’s first individually approved immune-boosting supplement, made from Korean natural ingredients such as Angelica gigas, Cnidium officinale, and Paeonia japonica. Distributed by Atomy, one of Kolmar BNH’s key partners, the product is currently exported to approximately 20 countries, including the United States and China. Since its debut, HemoHim has generated over KRW 2 trillion in cumulative sales, both at home and abroad, with an unprecedented export record of over USD 200 million. It has maintained its position as the top-selling product in the immune-boosting health supplement category in Korea for more than a decade.

An official from Kolmar BNH said, “The U.S. FDA’s inspection is a critical benchmark for ensuring product safety and efficacy through a thorough and organized process. Receiving a No Action Indicated (NAI) classification is a significant achievement for Kolmar BNH, as it validates the quality of our products on the global stage. We are committed to enhancing our competitiveness in global markets through ongoing quality innovation and additional global certifications, with HemoHim at the forefront of our efforts.”

EBC FINANCIAL GROUP IMPROVES LIQUIDITY, REDUCES TRADING COSTS ON MAJOR STOCK INDICES

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- Amidst a global stock market resurgence, EBC Financial Group (EBC) has enhanced liquidity for five major stock indices, namely the United States (US) Dow Jones, Nasdaq, S&P 500, the A50 (China), and the Hang Seng Index (Hong Kong).

This strategic move aims to provide investors with more optimised, efficient trading across all global sessions by reducing trading costs and offering greater access, according to a statement.

EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd Chief Executive Officer, David Barrett, offered an early prediction in June that undervalued markets were set to rebound, stating that value reversion is a powerful force emphasising that markets under pressure were now ripe for capital returns.

The past months have borne out these predictions, with all three major US stock indices (Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and S&P 500) having hit new all-time highs since the start of 2024, driven by fresh investment and increased investor confidence.

In addition, Asian markets, particularly in China and Hong Kong, are experiencing their most significant gains in a decade, marking them as central to global growth.

As the world’s investors hunt for undervalued assets, EBC has strengthened its ability to offer the lowest trading costs for five major stock indices, giving traders a unique edge in the market with tighter spreads and wider access.

Global capital is not simply flowing into traditional assets. A fresh wave of initial public offerings (IPOs) is reshaping the investment landscape, offering new opportunities for growth in sectors ranging from fintech to renewable energy.

Barrett explained that the market’s expectation for interest rate cuts has shifted the landscape, adding that the rise of fintech IPOs, in particular, shows no signs of slowing down.

With this, liquidity enhancements in major indices such as the Nasdaq and the Hang Seng are not simply reactive measures, but rather strategic moves by institutions like EBC to prepare for the next wave of market activity.

As global capital searches for growth, liquidity becomes more than a technical feature, it is a vital asset in a world where time and access to markets matter. The liquidity enhancements are laying the foundation for future market opportunities, and those who understand these shifts and act accordingly will find themselves well-positioned in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.

It was also recently recognised by Chartis as a category leader in the 2024 RiskTech Quadrants for Conduct Risk and Control Solutions and Enterprise governance, risk management and compliance (GRC) Solutions, noting that “in a crowded GRC ecosystem, MCO has distinguished itself with an architecture and go-to-market (GTM) approach anchored by scalability”.

The Chartis RiskTech100 is a comprehensive independent study of the world's major players in risk and compliance technology.

Rankings are based on functionality, core technology, strategy, customer satisfaction, market presence and innovation, and focus on solutions, industry segments and success factors.
