“Pakistan has an additional advantage of being one of the closest countries to the UAE,” says SCCI President.
SUKKUR:
Sukkur Chamber of Commerce and Industries (SCCI) President, Engineer Abdul Fateh Sheikh, said that Pakistan was one of the leading exporters of food products to the UAE and other Gulf countries. While attending the world’s biggest food exhibition in Dubai, he said UAE required all kinds of foods, from meat to frozen products, and Pakistan was producing these of excellent quality. “Pakistan has an additional advantage of being one of the closest countries to the UAE,” he said, adding that Pakistani companies should open retail shops in the country to capture a greater market share. Speaking about the trade potential, he said that the UAE was the hub of the Middle East and can be utilised particularly for re-export.
