Zimbabwean farmers are intent on increasing their exports to Dubai and the rest of United Arab Emirates following strengthened support from the Dubai International Chamber (DIC) and ZimTrade.
The farmers are hoping engagements with the DIC will make it easy to land their products into the Middle East economy.
Edwin Moyo, chairperson of Nhimbe Fresh Exports, which is exporting blueberries to Dubai: “We want to make sure we are in that market longer and we understand the distribution channels so that whatever we grow is targeted towards Dubai.” He added that the firm had been supplying other international markets, such as Europe, as well. Moyo stated he was confident that Dubai would provide more returns as a market, while it will also serve as a gateway to the rest of the Middle East.
