The Department for International Trade (DIT), Scottish Enterprise, Invest NI and Business Wales in conjunction with the Great British Food Programme, are bringing together our network of trusted buyers and distributors from the Middle East and Pakistan with over 150 of the leading food and drink producers from across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales direct to your screens for the Gulfood 2021 - Virtual Meet the Buyer event.
Over 500 pre-selected meetings will be held over the course of this 2-day event, where you’ll be able to engage with those buyers that have selected you at a mutually time which suits both parties. Multiple overseas markets will be represented throughout for what promises to be an action-packed event where new, prosperous relationships will be made.
Why take part?
This is an exclusive opportunity for UK producers to showcase their products, and to internationalise and innovate their business, by connecting with a range of overseas buyers who are all hungry to buy quality British produce.
How does it work?
As the buyer network has selected who they are interested in we will arrange those meetings automatically. To make sure that you get the most out of the event we have our colleagues from the markets also joining this event to take 1:2:1 meetings. We will notify you via the B2Match system when you are able to request and receive additional meetings; with all face-to-face virtual meetings taking place on the platform via the in-house video chat feature.
Once your registration has been approved, we would encourage you to familiarise yourself with how B2Match works and what to expect by looking at the information on the 1-2-1 Virtual Meeting – FAQ tab. However, if you still have any unanswered questions after reading this information, please don’t hesitate to contact us at any stage.
