In a statement to Al-Ghad News on Saturday, Khudari
said that the exhibition, the largest annual food and beverage event in the
world, brought new marketing channels to Jordanian products in light of the
contracts signed with companies taking part in Jordan’s pavilion.
Thirty-six local companies specializing in the
production of meat, dairy products, pasta, pastries, vegetable oil, and coffee,
among others, took part in the exhibition, according to Khudari.
The JEA
facilitated Jordan’s participation in
Gulfood 2022 to promote the products of
local manufacturers as well as to take a first-hand look at latest developments
in the food manufacturing sector.
The exhibition also witnessed an unprecedented
turnout from participants and visitors, which suggests that the world has begun
to realize the importance of
food manufacturing and food security post COVID-19
pandemic.
Manufacturers said that the exhibition was a crucial
commercial platform that connects them with traders, suppliers, and importers
from across the world, adding that Jordan has proven highly competitive in the
export markets.
JEA CEO and Vice Chairman Halim Abu Rahmeh described
Jordan’s participation in Gulfood as “distinguished”, having seen remarkable
interest by the visitors from around the world.
Abu Rahmeh indicated that the JEA will be
participating in
SIAL Canada tradeshow, which will be held in April, following
its successful participation in Gulfood 2022.
Participating in international events creates an opportunity
to promote Jordanian products and open new markets, according to Abu Rahmeh.
