In a statement released on Tuesday, Khudari said that many of the participating Jordanian companies, of which there are 18, have been able to enter new export markets through commercial partnerships and contracts signed with suppliers because of the event.

Gulfood Manufacturing is being held at the Dubai World Trade Center with the participation of 55 countries, and it is the largest of its kind in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia for the food and beverage industry, processing, packaging, and logistics.
In addition, Jordanian manufacturers participating in the exhibition have said that the event is an important trading platform that enables them to identify and network with a number of traders in different countries of the world interested in Jordanian products.
The owner of one of the companies, Hisham Al-Qaisi, said that participation in the exhibition, specifically in the private trademarks and licenses section, aims to promote Jordanian products and meet with agents and distributors from around the world as part of the company’s plans to expand.
