🌍 Neoking Foods at Gulfood 2026: Connecting Global Markets Through Protein Trade
From January 26 to 30, 2026, Neoking Foods participated in Gulfood 2026, held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates — recognized as the largest food and beverage exhibition in the world and one of the most influential platforms for international trade in the global food industry.
The event brought together thousands of companies, buyers, and decision-makers from across the globe, creating a strategic environment for high-level negotiations and long-term partnerships.
According to official organizers and ApexBrasil, the exhibition gathered more than 5,000 exhibitors from over 120 countries and attracted approximately 150,000 qualified visitors, including importers, distributors, and industry leaders.
🚢 A Strategic Hub for Global Food Trade

With participation from companies representing up to 195 countries and thousands of food products, Dubai reaffirmed its role as a central hub connecting markets across the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Europe.
For Brazilian exporters, the region represents a strategic gateway to high-growth markets highly dependent on food imports — creating significant opportunities for protein suppliers.
