DUBAI PHILANTHROPIST ANOSH AHMED DONATES 10 MLN GBP TO LEBANON'S VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 29 (Bernama) -- Dubai billionaire and Private Family Office Anosh Ahmed (PFOAA) founder, Anosh Ahmed and its foundation, announced donation of essential food worth 10 million GBP to Lebanon. (1GBP = RM5.65)

In a statement, Anosh said this donation is a step toward bringing nourishment, hope, and dignity to those in need.

“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.

“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,” he said.

Anosh’s remarkable rise from a modest US$4,000 investment to a billionaire agripreneur demonstrates how ambition, innovation, technology, and sustainability can transform the agricultural sector.

At present, he is recognised as one of the largest leaseholders of agricultural land across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.

Over 22 years, his agribusiness has grown to a valuation of US$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, in which 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, and via workshops, documentaries, as well as his forthcoming autobiography titled From Soil to Success, Anosh continues to share his knowledge and passion, making him a beacon of hope and transformation in the agricultural sector.
