Abu Dhabi Chamber signs agreements to boost food security and economic growth – The National

The Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry has signed three preliminary agreements with leading local and regional organisations that aim to help small and medium enterprises and start-ups boost their contributions to the food sector and stimulate economic growth in the UAE capital.

The agreements were signed with Emirates Development Bank (EDB), the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (Adafsa) and the Arab Authority for Agricultural Investment and Development (AAAID), with the goal of strengthening the contribution of the private sector to the economy, the chamber said in a statement on Thursday.

The accords, signed as part of the chamber's participation at the Abu Dhabi International Food Exhibition, will help companies launch projects and give them the required guidance to scale at local and regional levels, said Mohamed Al Mheiri, director general of the Abu Dhabi Chamber.
