Based in Oman, ZabonEx is a food technology company dedicated to enhancing efficiency in the food and beverage industry through advanced predictive analytics solutions. ZabonEx operates as a technology platform tailored for the Food and Beverage (F&B) sector, founded in 2023 in Muscat, Oman.

ZabonEx is a technology platform designed specifically for the Food and Beverage (F&B) industry, providing innovative solutions to optimize product distribution and minimize waste.

Its core offering revolves around an AI-powered prediction engine that analyzes historical sales and inventory data from both the user's stores and partner retailers. This system accurately forecasts the optimal quantity of F&B products to be dispatched, ensuring that businesses can effectively meet consumer demand while reducing excess inventory and food waste. ZabonEx caters to a diverse client base, including food producers, distributors, and retailers across various geographical markets, encompassing North America, Europe, and select regions in Asia. The platform aims to support sustainable practices in the F&B sector by improving inventory management and product freshness, thus directly addressing challenges such as overstocking and spoilage.

ZabonEx generates revenue through a subscription-based model, allowing clients to access its predictive analytics services and integrate them into their existing systems with minimal setup required. Clients include retail chains, local food distributors, and supermarkets that benefit from the accurate forecasting capabilities of ZabonEx. The company structures its transactions primarily as B2B partnerships, where clients pay a recurring fee based on the volume of data processed and the complexity of analytics provided. This pricing model is designed to align with the financial performance of the businesses it serves, as the improved inventory management can lead to increased sales and reduced waste.

By focusing on delivering tangible results through its AI-driven solutions, ZabonEx positions itself as a critical partner for companies aiming to enhance their operational efficiency and sustainability in the competitive F&B landscape. In July 2025, ZabonEx raised USD 100,000 in pre-seed funding, which will be utilized to upgrade its demand forecasting engine, hire additional developers, forge partnerships with local food suppliers, and develop onboarding tools for regional expansion. The company plans to launch enhanced products in the near future to further improve its service offerings. ZabonEx is targeting expansion into additional markets in Asia and Europe by the end of 2026.
