Taking part in trade fairs is a sometimes risky business, with resulting orders falling below the expenditure required to participate. However, the recent World Food Fair, "Gulfood 2015", that was held in Dubai between the 8th and 13th of February, has proved to be a bonanza for Moroccan exporters

Sixty Moroccan companies took part in the fair and, as in the previous fairs, Export Morocco assured wide promotion of the Moroccan offerings of food products under the label "Made in Morocco"
The resulting orders and test orders were worth 76 million dirhams according to a statement by the Moroccan Centre for Export Promotion, Export Morocco.
