The board reached a decision on the marketing plan for the coming year to market Alba products in the local, regional and international markets following the production increase over the past several months.
The board also reviewed updates on the new in-house training centre and Alba’s preparations as a co-sponsor of the Arab Environment Conference which will be held this month under the patronage of the General Directorate for the Protection of Marine Resources, Wildlife, and Environment chairman Shaikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa.
The board reviewed all items in the meeting agenda, including aluminum prices in the international market and how to benefit from it in next year’s marketing plan after meeting the local and regional market requirements.
