Gulfood 2026 has come to a close, marking another important milestone for Dana Dairy Group and DANALAC as we continue to strengthen our global presence in dairy and infant nutrition.
Over four intensive days in Dubai, our team welcomed partners, importers, distributors, and industry professionals from a wide range of markets to our stand in Sheikh Rashid Hall – Stand R-130, engaging in meaningful conversations that went far beyond introductions.
From First Meetings to Concrete Discussions
What stood out most during this year’s Gulfood was the depth and quality of engagement. Early conversations quickly evolved into focused discussions around market requirements, regulatory alignment, supply planning, and long-term cooperation models.
For Dana Dairy Group, this meant productive exchanges across our broader dairy portfolio. For DANALAC, the interest was particularly strong around European-made infant formulas, including standard, premium, and goat milk ranges—reflecting continued global demand for reliable, well-positioned infant nutrition solutions.
DANALAC: Strong Interest in Trusted Infant Nutrition
Throughout the exhibition, DANALAC attracted attention from both existing and new partners seeking infant nutrition products built on European quality standards, consistency, and long-term brand potential.
Meetings focused on market-specific needs, regulatory pathways, portfolio expansion, and sustainable long-term partnerships rather than short-term trading.
Partnerships at the Core
We were pleased to participate alongside our partner SLG, reinforcing the importance of strong local collaboration in building global reach. Gulfood once again proved to be a valuable platform not only for discovering opportunities, but for deepening existing relationships and aligning on future growth strategies.
Looking Ahead
As Gulfood 2026 concludes, the focus now shifts from exhibition halls to follow-ups, planning, and execution. The conversations held in Dubai will continue in the weeks ahead as we work with partners to turn discussions into action.
We thank everyone who met with us during the exhibition and look forward to building on this momentum together.
