This year's Gulfood attracted F&B professionals from around the world; but the new gourmet show will cater for a 'bespoke market'.
The first trade exhibition in the Middle East dedicated to providing the most exclusive, high-end food products sourced from all over the world will launch in Dubai in October this year.
Gourmet: Speciality and Fine Food will bring together gourmet food producers to showcase the most unique, high-end, luxury food and drink products on the market.
Catering to the exclusive food and hospitality sector as well as specialist buyers of premium produce across the Middle East, the event will take place from October 31 to November 2, 2010, at Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre (DICEC).

Italian Trade Commissioner Francesco Alfonsi promised hat “Italian companies will play an integral part of the show’s future success”.
