Conveniently co-located to offer unrivalled cross-selling and sourcing opportunities for both visitors and exhibitors, Speciality Food Festival, Sweets & Snacks Middle East, SnackTec Middle East and the International Travel Catering & Services Exhibition (ITCA Dubai) are organised by the Dubai World Trade Centre ( DWTC ) and run from 25 - 27 October.
Speciality Food Festival, which was enthusiastically received by the region's hospitality professionals when it launched last year, has enjoyed unprecedented growth in 2011, increasing by 300% in terms of exhibition space and welcoming 7 more countries to the show this year. Offering a much needed platform for the showcasing of ultra-premium gourmet food products from around the world and focused on four key sectors - Gourmet, Halal, Seafood and Organic - suppliers from countries as far afield as Australia, Argentina, Spain, Sri Lanka, Italy and French Polynesia have joined regional suppliers from Iran, Morocco and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
A series of educational seminars being conducted during the shows provide industry professionals with excellent opportunities to stay abreast of the latest developments and trends influencing the industry. Sessions include food safety and regulatory issues within the GCC, ethical food trends, and the future of alternative ingredients in the face of global price hikes. Leading industry research organisation Euromonitor International, will be providing valuable insights from business analysts on the key growth channels for the industry in the region and globally.
Now in its fifth year, and jointly organised with Koelnmesse, an international trade fair organiser operating out of Germany, Sweets & Snacks Middle East is the region's only dedicated exhibition for the sweets, snacks, confectionary and bakery industry, which together with SnackTec Middle East, covers everything from ingredients, equipment and technology through to the finished products for catering and retail.
