Agriculture and Food Industry
Market access, compliance and buyer partnerships for food and agri-tech across the GCC.
the challenge
Food demand in the Gulf is growing, while import reliance, safety standards and buyer expectations are rising. Success depends on disciplined market access: Arabic labelling and registration, halal certification where required, distributor quality and cold-chain reliability, and the right trade terms for retail and foodservice.
We help producers, brands, agri-tech firms and promotion bodies turn interest into listings and durable partnerships—aligning with country regulations, category calendars, and procurement practices across the region.
