Juhayna Food Industries, one of Egypt's largest dairy product and juice makers, negated having any operations or working employee at Libya.

Nahla Mokhtar Agour, Mass Communication Section Head at Juhayna, said "Juhayna operates in Libyan market through agent."

Earlier, the country’s biggest producer of packaged milk said 2014 net income fell by almost half to EGP170.1 million because of higher input costs and a weaker local currency.
