Exporting to the United Arab Emirates

Our next market visit to the UAE will be in September 2024

Following another successful market visit in February to the UAE for Arab Health, Gulfood and to meet with our retailer and distribution network, we will be heading back out to the UAE in September 2024.

Whilst out in market we will be meeting with our connections to showcase our portfolio of client products to potential buyers and develop relationships with key stake holders.

We have a number of resources for brands considering the UAE as an export territory, take a look further down this page for helpful guides and key insights as well as the latest opportunities from our partners out in market.

If you are a retailer or distributor who would like to have a face to face meeting whilst we are in this region, please get in touch.
