Quintin Gray, Middle East Trade Consultant

Why Attend Gulfood in Dubai:

  • It is the largest annual Food and Beverage Show in the world with more than 5,500 exhibitors from more than 129 countries and with hundreds of thousands of food buyers from around the world.

  • This is a "must-attend" event for any food export company or organization in the US.

  • The US currently exports more than $3 billion USD of food products to the Middle East each year and most of those sales are made at Gulfood.

  • Simply stated: "You Need to Be There"

  • But before you go to Gulfood, I highly recommend you take my Gulfood Pre-Show Training.

Why take My Training?

  • Because I know the inner workings of Gulfood and how best to get buyers at Gulfood to consider buying your food products.

  • I've attended Gulfood for more than 20 years as the Agricultural Trade Officer working at the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. as the Agricultural Counselor at the U.S. Consulate in Dubai, and as a Middle East consultant. In each position, I promoted U.S. foods at Gulfood and in the Middle East.

  • While in Dubai, I organized three USA Pavilions working closely with the Dubai World Trade Center staff and U.S. industry groups.

  • I have worked on projects as a Middle East Consultant for the Southern United States Trade Association (SUSTA), the Western United States Agricultural Trade Association (WUSATA), American Indian Foods, the Departments of Agriculture for North Carolina and Texas.

  • I've advised hundreds and thousands of companies over the years on how best to promote their products at Gulfood and the Middle East.
