Several food and drink companies will be key ingredients in Scotland's recipe for success by exhibiting at the Gulfood event in Dubai

The Middle East is one of the largest importers of food in the world and Dubai plays a key role in the distribution of food in the region, with over 70 percent of total UAE food imports re-exported from here to more than 160 countries including the Gulf, the Indian sub-continent and increasingly the Central Asian Republics.

Gulfood is an excellent platform to display Scottish products in front of one of the world's most diverse markets. Established for 25 years, Gulfood is a food and drink trade show with proven credentials.

For exporters seeking new sales from the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, Gulfood provides a trade and sourcing platform where international flavours find world-class business.

SDI is offering its support to businesses prior to the event and then on-site and in-market.
