The primary goal of this program is to honour those food establishments in Dubai that have
demonstrated excellence in food safety, thereby contributing to strengthening the city’s

position as a global trade hub

The program encompasses three categories and assesses participating establishments

based on five criteria.

Dubai Municipality has opened submissions for the first edition of the DM Food Elite, Dubai
Municipality’s latest program to honour food establishments in the Emirate for their excellence

in standards for food safety, nutrition, sustainability, social responsibility, and innovation. The
primary goal is to encourage these food enterprises to continue surpassing and raising the
standard of living in the Emirate.

Sultan Al Taher, Director of Food Safety Department at Dubai Municipality, emphasized that

the program is the result of the Municipality’s continuous efforts and steadfast commitment to
creating a sustainable food system. Al Taher also confirmed that the food system incorporates

exceptional health and food safety requirements that strengthens Dubai’s position as a
sustainable city ensuring excellent living standards as well as guarantees compliance with the

highest international standards for safety and sustainability. The program’s primary objective
is to honor and recognize food organizations and entities that have made significant

contributions to the advancement of this system and bolstering Dubai’s status as a global
trade hub in support of the objectives of the Dubai Food Security Strategy.”
