“I am one of the biggest fans of this event. It’s our second year in a row attending FFCC, and honestly, it has been amazing for us. The quality of discussions we’ve had with potential clients, partners, and industry experts has been unparalleled. Having everyone from the ecosystem gathered in one place is truly remarkable. You can meet your clients, aggregators, POS providers, and suppliers all in one location. The entire ecosystem is here, and it’s at the heart of everything we do. Thank you to the organizers.” - General Manager, Foodics, UAE

“This is the first time my company, specialized in packaging food & cleaning materials, has attended the event, and it has been fantastic. I love it. It’s a great platform for exchanging ideas, and the speakers have been unbelievably fantastic. The subjects and topics discussed have been right on point. I’m particularly interested in sustainability products and programs that many companies are following. The only regret I have is not attending last year. Thank you very much.” - Founder and CEO of AL Bayader

The FFCC team is committed to raising the bar and ensuring that our show continues to grow in terms of quality and size for its valued partners and attendees. it is dedicated to promoting and advancing the industry in the UAE and is eagerly looking forward to hosting you at this year’s event and surpassing all expectations.
