FOOD QATAR

Doha Exhibition and Convention Center, Doha, Qatar

October 12–14, 2026

Food Qatar is a specialised international trade exhibition for food, beverages, food processing and packaging.

The event brings together food manufacturers, importers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, HoReCa buyers and companies supplying products and technologies for the food industry.

Its profile includes packaged and processed food, canned products, beverages, ingredients, refrigeration, filling, sealing, labelling, processing equipment and packaging solutions.

Food Qatar is particularly relevant for exporters seeking access to Qatar and the wider Gulf market, where imported and shelf-stable products play an important role in food supply.

Canned vegetables, canned fruit, seafood, sauces, ready-to-eat foods and other ambient products are especially suited to the sourcing needs of importers, distributors and food-service operators serving the Qatari market.

HOSPITALITY QATAR

Doha Exhibition and Convention Center, Doha, Qatar

October 12–14, 2026

Hospitality Qatar is the country’s longest-running international exhibition for hospitality, hotels, restaurants, cafés, catering and food service.

It connects hotel groups, restaurant operators, catering companies, distributors, food-service buyers, chefs, investors and suppliers of hospitality equipment and technology.

Relevant exhibition sectors include food and beverages, professional kitchens, catering systems, refrigeration, tableware, hospitality technology, hotel supplies and food-service solutions.

For canned-food suppliers, the event is mainly useful for meeting importers, distributors, catering companies and institutional buyers serving Qatar’s hotel and restaurant market.

Its value is therefore complementary to Food Qatar: the focus is less on grocery retail and more on professional kitchens, hospitality procurement, catering and food-service supply.
