THE 

PULSE OF GULFOOD 2026:

DIVE INTO OUR SHOW SECTORS

IMPORTANT NOTICE – NEW HOME FOR CONFECTIONERY

We have made important profile amendments, that have been effective immediately since our last edition Gulfood 2024. 

The following product categories have removed entirely from the Gulfood portfolio since June 2023:

Confectionery, sweets, bonbons, candies, caramels, drops, chewing gums, gums and jellies, liquorice, marshmallows, nougat, pralines, toffee, and truffles, as well as cocoa, chocolate and chocolate products. Demand for exhibit space at Gulfood far outstrips supply. In an effort to help more exporters access important regional markets we introduced a number of product-focused events and one of the most important is ISM Middle East.

Going forward companies that carry the aforementioned product categories will be directed ISM Middle East https://www.ism-me.com – ISM Middle East has now been established for over a decade as the home for confectionery exhibits and the only trade fair in the confectionery and snack industry in the MENA region.
