📌 Who Should Consider Applying?

This opportunity may be particularly valuable for Pakistani companies that:

• Already manufacture bakery or confectionery products

• Have an established brand

• Have export-quality packaging

• Are interested in GCC markets

• Want to find international distributors

• Have sufficient production capacity

• Want to develop an international customer network

• Are planning to start or expand exports

🇵🇰 Export Opportunity for Pakistani Food Businesses

Pakistan has a wide range of traditional sweets, biscuits, bakery products, chocolates and other food products that can potentially appeal to international consumers.

However, entering an international market requires more than simply producing a good product. Businesses should also evaluate product quality, packaging, labeling, shelf life, certifications, pricing, logistics, customs requirements and target-market regulations before approaching foreign buyers.

An international exhibition such as ISM Middle East can therefore be used not only for sales but also for market research, buyer meetings, competitor analysis and export planning.

⚠️ Important Note

The participation fee, eligibility requirements, application process, facilities and other conditions should be verified directly through TDAP before making any payment or final commitment.

Interested companies are encouraged to apply well before the 31 August 2026 deadline.
