Bahrain to participate in 2017 India International Food Fair

A delegation from the Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI), businessmen and investors will participate in the 2017 India International Food Fair to be held in New Delhi on 3-5 November.
Head of BCCI’s Food and Agriculture Committee, Khalid Al-Amin, said Bahrain’s participation aims to expand trade in food industries, including rice, cooking oil and pulses, to enhance national food security.
He noted the strength of bilateral relations in various fields, mainly economic, trade and investment. He stressed the significance of the fair, which is one of the largest at the Asian level.
He said the Indian government has allocated agricultural land for foreign investors, which could benefit Bahrain’ food security.
India’s Ambassador to Bahrain, Alok Kumar, said his country offers investment facilities and technology required to produce various kinds of high quality food. He added it is a good opportunity to hold investment partnerships in this area to increase the volume of trade exchange between the two countries.
