The event, which is set to host over 5,500 exhibitors, will serve as an innovative

platform for the Municipality to showcase its relentless efforts to enhance food
safety and quality in the emirate of Dubai.

Dawoud Al Hajri, Director General of Dubai Municipality, highlighted the
significance of the Municipality’s participation in Gulfood Exhibition, which is one

of the biggest events that brings together food and beverage communities
around the world.

He added that the exhibition is an annual forum for sharing expertise and

knowledge in the field to gain a comprehensive understanding of global and
future trends, latest industry developments, production, circulation and food and

beverages.

Al Hajri stated that the exhibition will serve as an ideal opportunity to shed light
on the Municipality’s efforts to create a sustainable food system in Dubai while

safeguarding communities from food risks.

He further pointed out that this will contribute to enhancing Dubai’s status as a

role model for global cities and achieving the objectives of the emirate's Food
Security Strategy.

Al Hajri said, “During our participation at Gulfood Exhibition, we will showcase

our efforts in guaranteeing food safety and quality as well as our cutting-edge
digital services that facilitate import, export, and registration operations for food

products and shipments. These digital services contribute to enhancing the
availability of flexible, sustainable, and integrated food supply chains. It also
enhances our efforts in educating food enterprises, traders, and suppliers about

the most recent safety standards, food specifications, and environmental
sustainability, thereby ensuring their implementation.”

Dubai Food Systems Excellence Programme, the most recent initiative to

recognise the best food establishments in the application of integrated standards
of food safety, nutrition, environmental sustainability, community responsibility,
digitisation, and innovation, will be reviewed by the Municipality during Gulfood.
