It's all about family
We started as a family run business named ‘Aliyah Rizq Farm’ founded in 2015 with a 2 acre farm in Mersing with 30 goats and sheep with the intention of providing the service of aqiqah and qurban.
The only constant is change
We moved our operations in 2017 to Bio Desaru with sister company ‘Agropreneur Farms Sdn Bhd’. Currently the farm is home to over 500 livestock, and in 2022, have expanded to 100 acres.
The sky's the limit
In 2023, we set up ‘Aliyah Rizq Africa Limited’, headquartered in Kenya for the purpose of breeding, trading and also exploring potential market in the Middle East and Asia.
About Us
Our Story
Aliyah Rizq Holdings Pte Ltd started as a family run business named ‘Aliyah Rizq Farm’ founded in 2015 with a 2 acre backyard farm in Mersing with humble beginnings of 30 goats and sheep with the intention of providing the service of aqiqah and qurban. Over the years, as the business progressed the company has expanded and moved its operations in 2017 to a 25 acres in Bio Desaru with its sister company ‘Agropreneur Farms Sdn Bhd’. Currently the farm is home to over 500 livestock, including sheep, goats, horses and alpacas. In 2022, we have further expanded to 100 acres of our operations in Desaru. As the demands for livestock and animals during qurban steadily increases, and the supply limited, Aliyah Rizq Holdings in 2018, began expanding its wings to Indonesia and set up a sister company in Medan ‘PT Aliyah Rizq Agriculture’ with the primary focus of being a social enterprise to support low income and less skilled farmers in Indonesia to supply livestock into Malaysia. At present, we have 4 farms running under our flagship and we have over 300 contract farmers in our network. At present we have set up a quarantine facility to facilitate the export of livestock from Indonesia to Malaysia, to meet the increasing local demands. This opened pathways for local Malaysian farmers to acquire good quality livestock from a secure and reliable source, legally as compared to the current struggle of the exploit of livestock smuggling via the Thailand borders. At present, we have exported over 5000 healthy and good quality sheep. Aliyah Rizq Holdings is continuing to expand its wings in setting up partner farms across Indonesia to build its own community of farmers to facilitate the needs of the market and the farmers in Malaysia. In 2023, we set up Aliyah Rizq Africa Limited, headquartered in Kenya for the purpose of breeding, trading and also exploring potential market in the Middle East and Asia. In recent news Indonesia and Singapore has established bilateral ties with Kenya for the purpose of meeting the demands of agricultural produce. At Aliyah Rizq Holdings we believe passionately about bridging the needs of both the farmers and the community through this social enterprise business model.

Business Model
Aliyah Rizq Group (ARG) is uniquely positioned in the market through its 360-degree value offering in the livestock supply chain that benefits distributors (B2B), end-users (B2C) and government-related organisations (B2G). This position is unique to ARG in the farm supply chain. Among its competitors, it is a unique business that offers both breeding and trading services and plans to implement IoT and AI in its business. ARG has the potential for further expansion given the funds to purchase additional livestock for breeding. They also act as a trading arm to a network of small breeding farmers in Indonesia. This supports their growth as the small farmers have stable flocks of sheep that can be imported into Malaysia.

Through workshops, mentorship, and hands-on experience, we equip these individuals with the skills they need to cultivate their land effectively and sustainably. By imparting knowledge about modern livestock farming techniques, we empower farmers to increase their farming productivity while minimizing the negative impact on the environment. Addressing Food Scarcity We actively contribute to combating food scarcity by distributing meat obtained from the livestock raised on our farms. We distribute meat to families in need. This initiative not only provides them with essential sustenance but also contributes to their overall well-being. By addressing the immediate needs of the underprivileged, we strive to create a positive and lasting impact on their lives.

We recognize the importance of creating a sustainable and humane environment for animals. Through our CSR programs, we emphasize the ethical treatment of animals and advocate for humane farming practices. By educating and raising awareness among our farmers, we encourage them to prioritize the well-being and welfare of the livestock in their care. This approach not only benefits the animals but also ensures the production of healthier and higher-quality meat. At Aliyah Rizq Group, our commitment to corporate social responsibility goes beyond profit margins. We strive to make a positive and lasting impact on society by empowering underprivileged potential farmers, addressing food scarcity, and promoting environmental responsibility. Through our initiatives, we have served over 150,000 beneficiaries, and we are dedicated to continuing our efforts in nurturing future livestock farmers who are environmentally responsible and humane to animals.
