Baltika to Expand Its Presence in the Middle East

Baltika participated in Gulfood 2026, the major international food and beverage exhibition held in Dubai in late January. Following negotiations at the event, agreements were reached to increase supply volumes and expand distribution channels across key Middle Eastern markets in 2026.

Baltika exports its products to more than 45 countries, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE. The company’s export activities are primarily focused on friendly regions, including the CIS, the Middle East and the Asia-Pacific region.

Gulfood provided a platform for strengthening business relationships and discussing opportunities for further development specifically in the Middle Eastern market.

At the exhibition, the company showcased its key non-alcoholic brands, including Baltika 0.0, developed specifically for the Middle Eastern market; the Baltika 0 range, featuring a variety of styles and new fruit-flavored products; and T.G.R. Force Energy. Importantly, some of the products are Halal-certified.

“During the negotiations, we reached agreements with our existing partners in key regional markets — the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Jordan, the Maldives, Tanzania, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Afghanistan — to increase supply volumes and expand distribution channels in 2026. We also plan to further expand our partner network in the UAE.”
