Dubai — From November 4 to 6, 2025, the United Arab Emirates will welcome six major Russian companies from the Moscow region to take part in Gulfood Manufacturing—the world’s largest exhibition dedicated to food and beverage processing, packaging, and production.
Organized by the Moscow Export Center, the Russian delegation represents a drive to bring Russian-made products to global audiences through participation in leading international exhibitions. Throughout 2025, the Center has pursued an active international agenda, showcasing Russian innovations across the UAE, Uzbekistan, Saudi Arabia, China, Iran, Malaysia, Belarus, Ethiopia, Vietnam, and Mongolia.
This year’s participation in Dubai includes six key Russian companies, each introducing advanced technologies and sustainable solutions to the food industry:
- Molopak will present a full suite of solutions—from raw ingredients and processing equipment to advanced sustainable packaging. One of Russia’s oldest manufacturers of paperboard-based packaging, Molopak will display its integrated services for dairy, juice, and beverage producers, including aseptic packaging, design development, marketing support, and packaging machinery.
- Amarito will showcase its range of plastic and paper packaging products tailored for the confectionery industry.
- Alucont, a producer of high-quality, eco-friendly aluminum foil tableware, will highlight its innovations in food storage, transport, and preparation—all centered on sustainability.
- Technopol will demonstrate Russian engineering excellence in industrial equipment manufacturing, with systems for process automation, shock-freezing lines, fermentation systems, and complex transport mechanisms.
- Promfood will introduce its line of complex food additives and spice blends for diverse culinary applications.
- Plant RosSky will feature its expertise in bovine connective tissue proteins, dietary fibers, and collagen proteins—manufactured through unique technologies that meet international quality standards.
Russia’s participation aims to expand its export footprint across Arab markets, particularly in major manufacturing countries such as Egypt, which is currently studying the establishment of a Russian Industrial Zone in the Suez Canal area—an initiative expected to open a new chapter in Arab–Russian industrial cooperation.
