Exhibitors at this year’s Gulfood show met up for a gala dinner at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre (DICEC) last night, where the results of the inaugural Gulfood Awards were revealed.
Arranged by event organiser Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) in association with UK-based FoodBev Media, the awards attracted more than 150 entries from 26 countries in 15 different categories, and were judged by an international panel.
The event was inaugurated by Helal Almarri, CEO of DWTC, and hosted by FoodBev Media group editorial director Bill Bruce, with company chairman Richard Hall presenting the awards to the lucky winners.
DWTC’s Almarri noted: “The calibre of entries and the interest in the Gulfood Awards has exceeded all expectations.
“As the largest and most influential trade exhibition in the Middle East, Gulfood has consistently attracted industry leaders from around the world, and to see this excellence carried through to the Awards only adds to the exhibition’s reputation.”
