Atlas Turf and Golf Saudi Sign MOU

Partnership to provide advanced turfgrasses for extensive golf development in Saudi Arabia

Atlas Turf International and Golf Saudi announced today their memorandum of understanding in place to form a joint venture. The companies intend to partner to develop turf farms in Saudi Arabia to meet the turfgrass needs of the nation’s extensive golf development program.

Golf Saudi, a subsidiary of the Saudi Golf Federation, and Atlas Turf, a globally recognized leader in advanced turfgrasses, will join forces to localize turf production tailored towards providing environmentally sustainable, licensed and certified turfgrasses. This initiative supports the overall goal of Golf Saudi to build a dynamic golf network attracting golf tourism and stimulating employment opportunities in the local golf industry.

“Part of our strategy entails building a robust supply chain framework in Saudi Arabia, bringing industry leaders together to expedite core aspects pertinent in delivering on our objectives and the national vision,” said Majed Al-Sorour, CEO, Saudi Golf Federation. “Atlas Turf is one of the most respected organizations in the turfgrasses sector and will provide us the opportunity to monitor the development of our value chain and bring grass roots development into Saudi, evolving job prospects and allowing us influence to safeguard the output quality.”

“Atlas Turf is one of the most respected organizations in the turfgrasses sector.”
