Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) — Uzbek companies have agreed to showcase their products in a dedicated pavilion at Oman's Silal wholesale market, Uzbekistan's Committee for Food Safety said.
The agreement was reached during a visit by representatives of Uzbek exporting companies to Muscat from 15 to 17 November 2026. The visit aims to expand export destinations for fruit, vegetables and other food products, and establish new trade partnerships.
The Uzbek delegation visited Silal market in the Khazaen Economic Zone, where it held meetings with market executives and representatives of ErmakPlus, Angelsey Food and Uniagri Group.
Exports to Oman and Persian Gulf markets
The discussions focused on organising supplies of Uzbek agricultural and food products to Oman and using the country as a gateway to markets across the Persian Gulf.
Silal market management offered to allocate a dedicated trading space for Uzbek goods. The parties also discussed signing export contracts.
The market has laboratories specialising in food safety inspections. According to the committee, once product samples are submitted, laboratory tests are carried out and a corresponding certificate is issued by Oman's Ministry of Agriculture.
The entire process takes about one hour, the statement said.
The delegation also learned about the market's operations and the activities of Suhol al Fayha. The company receives, sorts, packs and stores fruit and vegetables, and sells them wholesale.
