Supermarket chain Spinneys brought a taste of Wales to the UAE at a recent food showcase.

The event, held last month at the Desert Palm Resort and Spa, Dubai, featured products from a number of Welsh firms, including lamb, hand-cooked snacks and a selection of dairy products.

Organic yoghurts and deserts producer Rachel’s Organic Dairy was also present among the suppliers and manufacturers from the country.

International Business Wales Middle East vice president Lee Jennings said: “We were delighted to be able to showcase the best food Wales has to offer and strengthen our regional ties.

“Wales currently exports over US $10 million worth of food and beverage products to the Middle East and relationships such as this will allow further expansion into other markets.”

The brands on show were originally introduced to Spinneys at Dubai’s Gulfood exhibition early this year, where they were selected to feature in its stores.
