Saudi Arabia’s Exports Development Authority revealed on Saturday that 50 of the Kingdom’s food sector companies are participating in the SIAL Paris 2022 Food Show, which is running from Oct.15 to Oct.19.
Participation at the exhibition significantly raises brand awareness for Saudi exports, strengthening their position in regional and global markets. Moreover, the fair offers an opportunity for Saudi companies to identify international business prospects as it links exporters with potential clients.
