uFoodin becomes the Official Community Partner of Gulfood 2026
In a world where digital transformation and global connectivity redefine how food and beverage businesses grow and interact, uFoodin is proud to announce its new role as the Official Community Partner of Gulfood 2026 — the world’s largest and most influential food and beverage trade exhibition.
This strategic alliance brings together two leaders:
Gulfood, the physical powerhouse of global F&B trade, and uFoodin, the leading international digital network and B2B marketplace for the food industry, connecting over 10,000 companies across 210+ countries and territories.
The Event Context: Gulfood 2026
The 2026 edition of Gulfood will take place from January 26th to 30th, 2026, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates — for the very first time across two major venues: the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) and the Dubai Exhibition Centre (DEC) at Expo City Dubai.
This upcoming edition is expected to be the largest in Gulfood’s history, bringing together more than 8,500 exhibitors, over 1 million products, and participants from nearly 195 countries.
Why this partnership matters
This partnership unites two complementary strengths: Gulfood provides the world-class physical infrastructure, international visibility, and unmatched scale; uFoodin brings the digital ecosystem — an always-on community where business connections start, grow, and continue long after the trade show ends. Together, they create a hybrid experience that empowers companies to prepare smarter, connect faster, and convert better.
Yang – Co-Founder & COO, uFoodin
“Gulfood is not just a trade show — it is the global epicenter of the food industry. This partnership is a major milestone, because it finally connects the world’s largest physical F&B event with the leading international digital platform. Together, we are building a seamless bridge between in-person meetings and year-round business opportunities — the natural next step for global food trade.” — Yang Wang
Damien – Co-Founder & CEO, uFoodin
“For years, companies have been telling us the same thing: they want to extend the impact of B2B food trade shows far beyond the few days of the event. With uFoodin × Gulfood 2026, we’re finally delivering that solution. Exhibitors and buyers can now start building visibility and connections before the show, meet with qualified leads onsite, and continue doing business afterwards — all from one platform. This is a major step forward for anyone looking to accelerate international growth.” — Damien Charbonnier
