"Moscow is systematically developing the export potential of Moscow-based companies, providing them with administrative, consulting, and informational support at every stage of their entry into foreign markets. The capital places particular emphasis on assisting high-tech industrial companies and producers in the agro-industrial sector. More than 30 international events are planned for them in 2026. Among the most popular and strategically important areas for cooperation is the Middle East," emphasized Olga Starikova, General Director of ANO Mosprom.
The program's first event this year was Gulfood 2026, the world's largest food industry exhibition, held in Dubai from January 26 to 30. At the Made in Moscow group stand, organized by the Moscow Economic Center, 20 Moscow-based companies presented their products—from innovative food products to automated production lines. Entrepreneurs held 400 meetings with potential partners, and the Ochakovo company signed an exclusive contract to supply kvass and other non-alcoholic beverages to the UAE.
The Made in Moscow program's geography continues to expand rapidly. In 2026, the Moscow Export Center and ANO Mosprom will organize projects in Myanmar, the Philippines, Nigeria, and Ethiopia for the first time.
