PROGRAMME
This year’s Eurofruit Congress Middle East
has its eye firmly set on the future. In a region
undergoing such rapid transformation, it is
essential that efforts are undertaken to predict
the changes that are likely to occur in the next
five years.
The conference programme includes an
overview of the macro-economic situation in the
Gulf, a look at forecasts for the region and an
insight into what they mean for local businesses
and foreign suppliers to the market.
In addition, we will see presentations from overseas
exporters to the region, including companies from
Italy, Vietnam and Chile, firms that are either looking
to enter the market or seeking to expand their
businesses in the Middle East.
This year more than ever, Eurofruit Congress
Middle East is the must-attend event for any fresh
produce professional interested in the region.

3. NETWORKING
Eurofruit Congress Middle East offers
unmissable networking opportunities so you
can make the most out of this potentially
lucrative and exciting market.
Delegates can arrange meetings with existing
customers, as well as building long-lasting
relationships with new contacts at one of the
numerous refreshment breaks, the networking
lunch or at the evening drinks reception.
Top decision-makers from leading fresh produce
companies such as Capespan, Emirates
SkyCargo, Maersk, San Miguel, Yalda Trading ,
Pear Bureau Northwest, Safmarine, Univeg, Trade
Waves and Washington Apple Commission
attended in 2011.
Success in the Middle East market rests not only
on having the most comprehensive knowledge
of the region, but also on having the best-quality
contacts to further your business there.
