Dubai and Gulf Food – Still Buying


NCDA was at the SUSTA sponsored Gulf Food Trade Show in Dubai UAE last week. Seven North Carolina companies also participated in the event. We established contacts with distributors from Australia to the UK. There was a surprising amount of interest from Iran of all places. Even though local grocery stores were full of different kinds of hot sauces, a remarkable number of people came by our booth looking for just that.

At the show, the local ATO gave us a complete directory of distributors that import products from the US. We also have on file an excellent presentation from the ATO about the UAE and Middle East markets and what you need to know to sell there. Give us a call at 919-733-7912 ext 248 for more information.
