Al Wais in Syria
- complete solutions from DeLaval and Tetra Pak

Al Wais Group in Syria is a joint customer of DeLaval and Tetra Pak. DeLaval has supported Al Wais to set up the entire cow farming and milk production, and Tetra Pak supplied a complete production system for the dairy project. Key success factors for both companies have been to fully understand the needs of the Al Wais Group and to offer complete solutions and total dedication to make these projects commercially successful for the customer.

Al Wais started as a small company producing candy. In order to avoid costly product losses, the company invented new products. So Al Wais started to produce sweeteners and set up a glucose plant. From corn raw material Al Wais produced starch and other products which they sold on the market. The remaining product of corn was the peel, which became excellent high protein feed for cows. Therefore, Al Wais bought a herd of cows, which led to another “waste product” – milk. Al Wais has expanded vertically from solely starch and glucose production into cow farming and milk production.
