About Gulfa Mineral Water And Processing Industries LLC

Gulfa was founded in 1975 as the first water company in the GCC and has since raised the standards of our bare necessity of water consumption. The wells in Masfout that surround the foundation of Gulfa have been naturally flowing through centuries, and it is through Gulfa that we are able to consume such mineral-enriched water to our convenience.
