Featured
Al Maraai Halal Squab
Halal squab, carried as a featured line of the catalog. Banquet and tasting-menu buyers know the bird; the box format below is built for portion work — twelve individually wrapped birds, each under a pound, so a kitchen takes out exactly what a service needs.
Beside the featured line, the catalog lists a whole pigeon (squab), also halal and a product of France, for buyers who take the bird in a simpler whole format. Both lines sit in the Game & Poultry section of the catalog, next to the quail range, partridge, and rabbit — so a game program can be quoted as one list instead of line by line.
Squab & the game shelf
4 linesWho Buys It
A small bird with a specific job
Squab is a menu bird, not a commodity line. Fine-dining and banquet foodservice buyers order it for courses built around a single portion; distributors who supply them carry the box because the individual wrapping keeps a case workable across several services. Specialty and halal retailers take it for the game case, where a whole bird per customer is the natural unit. If your program is seasonal — squab often is — say so in the request, with the window you are buying for.

Questions Buyers Ask
Before you request
How is the Al Maraai squab packed?
In 8.8 lb boxes holding 12 individually wrapped squab, each bird under 1 lb. The line is a product of France, and the box format is the only pack we quote for it.
Is the squab halal?
Yes. The featured Al Maraai line is halal squab, and the whole pigeon listed beside it in the catalog is also halal, product of France. Both are labeled halal on their catalog lines.
What is the difference between squab and pigeon?
It is the same bird at a different age. Squab is a young pigeon raised for the table — tender, dark, and portion-sized — which is why chefs and banquet programs order it by that name.
