Greek exhibitors from the entirety of the F&B sector

78 Greek businesses participated at Gulfood 2020, with 75 of them exhibiting under the umbrella of Enterprise Greece, the official agency of the Greek State and under the auspices of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which promotes investment in Greece, exports from Greece, and makes Greece more attractive as an international business partner.
The Greek pavilion, sponsored by Enterprise Greece, hosted these extravert companies under one roof and helped them hold more than 10,000 significant B2B meetings during the five days of the trade show.
