UK Pavilion is opportunity to get in front of huge market at massively successful exhibition
The success of GulfHost is underlined by the 2024 figures: 25,000 visitors represented a 200% surge in attendance. Meanwhile 88% of the 350+ exhibitors said they successfully positioned their brands in the market, and 80% found new customers.
The 2026 event takes place from 3rd to 5th November at the Dubai World Trade Centre and is the biggest foodservice equipment show in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. FEA is again organising the UK Pavilion and is offering attractive packages to help British foodservice equipment companies get in front of this massive market.
The UK Pavilion will offer British exhibitors an attractive, high profile group stand, and FEA has a variety of packages to ensure companies taking part can get exactly the presence they are after. Space within the pavilion costs from £710 per square metre, excluding additional charges such as insurance. The minimum stand size is 3 by 4 meters.
“GulfHost rightly bills itself as a ‘mega’ show,” says Jocelyn Shawyer, events manager at FEA. “The focus on foodservice equipment means exhibitors know that the visitors attending are absolutely there for the right reason. Anyone interested in the MENA market should consider having a presence at the show.”
As well as planning the UK Pavilion and constructing the stands, FEA will be offering exhibitors support and technical backup, before the show and on-site, and can help handle general trade enquiries if requested. The association will also be arranging pre-show communication to help maximise exhibitors’ success.
The FEA package is open to any UK foodservice equipment company, however the £250 booking surcharge is waived for FEA members. For more information contact Jocelyn Shawyer at FEA, jocelyn.shawyer@fea.org.uk.
