About
Built on 28 years of our founders' and field team's work on the region's farms.
Zoonexa is the animal intelligence hub for the Middle East and North Africa. We assess farms, design and install solutions, train teams and service them for years, and we advise programmes and investors.
Nine countries where our founders and field team have worked with farmers
Our roots
For 28 years our founders and field team have worked alongside farmers in Jordan, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the UAE: in poultry houses, dairy and cattle operations, sheep and goat flocks, and with horses and camels.
That work taught us what a farm needs from its supplier: the right advice before buying, a proper installation, and someone who answers the phone when something stops. Zoonexa builds on that experience with sensing, automation, diagnostics and farm data, chosen for the heat, water and disease pressure of this region and supported by people who know the farm.

What we bring
Field knowledge
We know the poultry house, the barn and the range from the inside, and what a hot summer, imported feed or a labour shortage does to a farm.
Technical depth
We assess a technology before we recommend it, and we know how to install, run and maintain it in this climate.
One team, A to Z
One company accountable for the visit, assessment, design, installation, training and after-sales.
Decisions based on measurement
We assess your farm before installation and evaluate the results after, so you see in numbers what changed.
