Itinatampok sa nasabing food expo ang mga produktong pagkain mula sa mahigit 190 mga bansa upang ipatikim at ipakita sa mga dumalo ang latest tastes, trends at innovations sa mundo ng F&B.

Ang Pixcel Transglobal, Inc., SL Agritech Corp. at Lionheart Farms, Inc. ang tatlong top-selling companies sa nasabing food expo kung saan itinampok ang mga fruit preserves, cavendish bananas, fermented marine products, at amino sap beverages na mga produkto.

Ang nasabing seremonya ay kaagad na sinundan ng series of matchmaking services at business-to-business meetings sa pagitan ng Philippine exporters at foreign trade buyers.

“The annual food expo has become an entry point for businesses across the world to penetrate the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region,” ang pahayag ni Fereira.

Ang taunang pakikilahok ng ating bansa ay pinangungunahan ng CITEM, isang attached agency ng Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), sa pakikipagtulungan ng Department of Trade and Industry-Export Marketing Bureau (DTI-EMB), at Philippine Trade and Investment Center sa Dubai (PTIC-Dubai).

Sa kabuuan, umabot sa US$ 133 milyong benta sa export bilang resulta sa partisipasyon ng bansa sa Gulfood 2024, doble kung ikukumpara sa nakuhang benta noong 2023.

Nakatakda namang idaos ng CITEM ang IFEX Philippines, ang pinakamalaking international trade show sa bansa para sa food and ingredients, sa darating na Mayo 10-12, 2024  sa World Trade Center Metro Manila, sa Pasay City.
