When in Dubai, I love visiting the supermarkets and spotting Victorian products on the shelves. This week was no exception as #food was on my mind with many buyers from the Middle East in Melbourne for Fine Food Australia looking to source new products for the region. Check out the pics to see some already popular and delicious Victorian brands on shelves Picnic Dairy Foods Ibrahim Ozdemir Bulla Dairy Foods Sam Zhang Riccis Bikkies Remedy Drinks First Press Coffee THE NATURAL CONFECTIONERY CO.

Introducing: Austrade’s export readiness test – a free online course to help Australian businesses get export ready. ✅💡 Developed by Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) in collaboration with the Export Council of Australia, the test is a simple way for businesses applying for a Tier 1 Export Market Development Grant (EMDG) to obtain knowledge and demonstrate they meet the export readiness requirements. In the next EMDG round, opening in November, all Tier 1 (new to export) applicants must now show they’re export ready. And that’s what the test helps businesses do. Watch the video to find out more about the test and go to our Go Global Toolkit to discover how Austrade assesses export readiness: https://ow.ly/3qo650Th5Ni Learn about the EMDG program on the Austrade website: https://ow.ly/5yZl50Th5Nk #Exporting #ExportReady #BuildingCapability #GoGlobalToolkit
