REDEFINING MANUFACTURING IN THE NEW REALITIES

In February 2021 – Gulfood delivered the most spectacular F&B success story of the year by running the only live, in-person food sourcing event in the world. Thousands of businesses from 85 countries participated to kick-start 2021 with major orders after a year of missed opportunities.

Continuing this powerful momentum of doing high-value business, swapping insights and networking face-to-face – Gulfood Manufacturing is back from 7-9 Nov in Dubai.

After a year of struggling with materials shortages, dislocated workforces and logistical disruptions, it’s time for the food manufacturing industry to leap into a new era of rapid-digital adoption and innovations in operations. And the big shift starts this November.
