Why should I visit Dubai?

  1. Convenience: SEAFEX brings together the key international buyers and suppliers at a central destination between East and West. Dubai is strategically positioned to serve both established and emerging markets, making it more accessible than other competitive events taking place in Europe or America.

  2. Business Opportunity: There is a marked rise in hotel development and renovation taking place in the lead up to Dubai World Expo 2020, creating exceptional networking potential. The Middle East and North Africa region as a whole is in the midst of exponential tourism growth, with operators openly exploring destinations in the Middle East, where tourism is booming.
SEAFEX is co-located with 3 complementary trade events showcasing food processing solutions at Gulfood Manufacturing, private label and licensing solutions at PRIME Middle East, and sweet & confectionary at YUMMEX Middle East. Your SEAFEX entry pass admits free entry to all co-located events.
