Over 2,800 exhibitors at inaugural Private Label & Licensing Middle East and Gulfood Manufacturing in Dubai

This year’s event, which features more than 2,800 exhibitors, includes the inaugural Private Label & Licensing Middle East, the MENA region’s only dedicated trade platform for the private label and licensing; Gulfood Manufacturing, the largest food and beverage processing and packaging show for the Middle East, Asia and Africa; and yummex Middle East and SEAFEX Middle East, a pair of food industry events homing in on confectioneries and seafood, respectively.

“The inaugural edition of first Private Label & Licensing Middle East is a direct response to exhibitor and visitor demand for a dedicated private label, brand licensing and contract manufacturing event,” said Trixie LohMirmand senior vice president, Exhibitions and Events, DWTC.

“The fact Private Label & Licensing Middle East is being held under our Gulfood power brand highlights the abundant opportunities available in this growing segment, although the spectrum of possibilities extends right across the FMCG product sphere. This strategic co-location enables unprecedented cross-sector business facilitation, thereby reinforcing Dubai’s strategic position as a gateway to multi-industry opportunities across our footprint markets.”
