Moroccan firms target Gulf via Bahrain
TDT | Manama Moroccan food producers will arrive in Bahrain this Wednesday with plans to expand into Gulf markets, as part of a high-profile business exhibition focused on building new trade and investment links between the two kingdoms. The event, to be held on June 25th at Crowne Plaza Hotel in the Diplomatic Area, will bring together a Moroccan delegation of food industry leaders and Bahraini investors, entrepreneurs, and traders from the same sector. Strengthening ties Organised by Alshall Consulting in partnership with the National Federation of Agricultural Products of Morocco (FENAGRI), the exhibition will showcase Morocco's capabilities in producing high-quality, internationally certified food products. Dr. Salah Al-Othman, representative of Alshall Consulting and President of Qarar National Consulting, said the initiative reflects a growing effort to deepen economic cooperation. 'This meeting marks a significant step toward deepening the economic relationship between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Kingdom of Bahrain. We seek to open new avenues for trade collaboration, promote the exchange of expertise, and highlight both emerging and established opportunities within this vital sector,' he said. Logistics and security Dr. Al-Othman noted that the event will not only promote product exports, but also explore investment opportunities in logistics and partnerships that support food security, a growing concern across the region. The exhibition is backed by key Moroccan institutions including the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment, and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Rural Development, Water and Forests. Connecting regions The event forms part of Morocco's broader effort to expand its agri-food export reach across the Gulf region. For Bahraini businesses, the platform offers a rare opportunity to build direct links with producers from North Africa and tap into new import and investment pipelines.
