Bakery equipment news from Farhat Bakery Equipment, the Lebanese manufacturer of industrial flatbread, pita and pizza lines: the trade fairs we exhibit at, company milestones, research and visits to our factory.
This newsroom follows Farhat Bakery Equipment, a Lebanese manufacturer of industrial machinery and complete production lines for pita, Lebanese and Arabic bread, pizza, manakish, tortilla, lavash and other flatbreads. The company traces its story to 1973, when founder Mahmoud Farhat, then a pita baker, began building equipment to automate his own production. Every post records something that actually happened: a trade fair, a company milestone, a research project or a visit to the factory in Kfarshima, Lebanon.
Trade fairs are where many buyers first see Farhat equipment in person. The news section covers:
Each exhibition post gives the hall and stand number and the production lines on show.
Company news includes the solar power system installed to power the manufacturing facility, and a Farhat-sponsored research study on the thermal characterization of a high-temperature industrial bread-baking oven, carried out with the Lebanese University, Oniris in Nantes and the Lebanese American University. The Mayor of Kfarshima presented the company with an appreciation award for its contribution to the town’s infrastructure, and in January 2026 the Farhat story was featured on LBCI’s My Journey.
Farhat opens its factory to the next generation of engineers. Students from the Lebanese University, the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik (USEK) and Eastwood College have toured the design office and production floor and watched pita bread lines demonstrated.
