Environment Project

Milk Collection Centres

In early 2010, DAL Food entered a long-term strategic partnership with some of Khartoum state’s milk producers that adequately safeguards the rights of both parties and contributes to the long-term development of the dairy sector. This step was taken purely out of conviction that the private sector’s entry into this field and turning to local milk producers will contribute immensely in the development of the dairy industry on all levels (producers, manufacturers, and distributors).

Environment Project

Green Bakery

This project is a Social Responsibility initiative by Sayga Flour Mills, which is part of the DAL Group conglomerate in Sudan. Following the MDGs Goal 7 and Global Compact principles 7, 8, and 9, the project aims to install electronically controlled burners (device and system) to add value to customers in terms of cost-effectiveness, safety, consistent quality, and increase in production capabilities. There are two types of bakeries in Sudan, mechanical bakeries, equipped with modern ovens, and traditional bakeries which use wood as fuel. A small number of these traditional bakeries have switched to gas by installing poorly manufactured conventional burners, which are considered unsafe and pose a fire and safety risk.

Culture Project

DAL Cultural Forum

Beyond its core operational activities, DAL has always worked to bridge cultural gaps and help others to better understand the roots of Sudanese arts, music, and poetry. DAL Group embodies diversity in every sense, and we strive to reflect that through our external activities.

The DAL Cultural Forum (DCF) was founded on the 29th of November 2007. It is an initiative to introduce different cultural agendas to the employees of DAL Group, their families, DAL Group business partners, and special interest groups including music and art schools, various cultural centres, organisations, as well as NGOs.

Culture Project

Digital Archive

The digital archive project is part of many initiatives by DAL Food to preserve the unique aspects of our culture, history, and national identity.

Culture Project

Cultural Protection Fund

As food and culture are intrinsically linked, food has always played a major role in Sudanese culture. Food habits, traditions, and practices have been passed on from one generation to another in Sudanese societies, but due to numerous factors such as conflict, displacement, and change in environmental conditions, some traditional foods are facing extinction.

Economic Empowerment Project

Livestock

This project was launched to support the recovery of development processes in Sudan. The goal is to improve the livelihoods of livestock producers in several localities by increasing the production of local livestock and facilitating linkages between producers and reliable partners.

Economic Empowerment Project

Inti Initiative

We encourage women to understand that they have the ability to uplift themselves as well as other women. This is what “Inti” is all about; women helping one another succeed and be all they aspire to be.

Economic Empowerment Project

The Bus Stops project

At DAL Group we believe it is the right of all people with disabilities to have the opportunity to engage in productive and meaningful employment.

The Coca Cola Bus Stop Project was established to assist people with disabilities with reintegration, as well as becoming productive and economically independent members of the community.

On a personal level, the project has helped over 200 people with physical, intellectual, and hearing disabilities so far. But also looking at the bigger picture, the impact reaches far beyond and is reflected directly in passenger safety, the transportation system, and overall economic development.

Education Project

School Library Program

As part of DAL’s long-standing commitment to improving education in Sudan, DAL embarked on the School Library Programme in 2016 in partnership with the European Union. The project aims to build a total of 16 libraries in areas affected by conflict, targeting mainly primary and secondary schools in North Darfur, West Darfur, and Khartoum State. Our goal is to create 4 libraries in each state.

Education Project

Connecting Classrooms

As an extension of our long-term commitment to improving education standards in the country, DAL Food worked in partnership with the British Council and UK Aid (Department of International Development) to bring the global education programme ‘Connecting Classrooms’ to Sudan.

Education Project
