The Vice-Chairman of Qatar Chamber, Mohamed bin Ahmed bin Tawar Al Kuwari, inaugurating the Food and Consumer Industries Exhibition at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center, The four-day expo, being organised by Maraya Public Relations and supported by Qatar Chamber.
Speaking after the opening ceremony, Al Kuwari said food industry is expected to see huge progress in the coming phase thanks to the flow of several major investments in the sector to meet the demand of the local market.
He highlighted the keenness of Qatari businessmen to invest in the sector. He also expected the country to witness a boom in this field over the next few years through the establishment of many food factories.
Organising such exhibitions helps in the exchange of expertise between local companies and international companies in the food industry, he said. This provides an opportunity for Qatari companies to learn about the latest technologies in food production. They also get to know about leading companies in different industries and enhance cooperation with them.
He noted that Qatar Chamber pays special attention to the issue of food security and urges business owners to increase their investments in food industries. The chamber has organised specialised exhibitions in this field to highlight the role of local factories and their development towards meeting the needs of the food market in the country.
