Riyadh – The shareholders of Development Works Food gave the green light for the board’s recommendation to increase the capital through bonus shares of one share for every five owned shares, according to a bourse disclosure on Sunday.

The company aims to raise the capital by SAR 5 million or 20% to stand at SAR 30 million distributed over 3 million shares, compared to SAR 25 million and 2.5 million shares prior to the hike.

Development Works Food intends to boost the company's future business activities through this capital increase.
