More than 300 meetings, visitors from across Europe, Asia and the Americas, and five days of business discussions. MAK Food Company concludes SIAL Paris 2026 with strong commercial momentum ahead of Gulfood Manufacturing in Dubai this November.
MAK welcomed industry professionals from China, India, Poland, Slovakia, Pakistan, Indonesia, Germany, the United States, Japan, Argentina and Colombia, among other countries, to stand 5C G159.
This international reach brought different market requirements and development briefs into the conversation, creating opportunities to explore ingredient sourcing, beverage formulation and future collaboration.
With over 300 meetings held at the stand, MAK now turns its attention to following up on those discussions and defining the technical and commercial requirements of prospective projects.
From ingredient innovation to industrial application
MAK showcased fruit concentrates, citrus specialities, oat- and rice-based alternatives, innovative flavour combinations and sweetening solutions for beverage manufacturers, brands and distributors.
The selection included Lemon-Ginger Rice, oat combinations with coffee, chocolate or hazelnut, and fruit concentrates with spicy notes, such as Mango & Jalapeño. Together, these references illustrate different routes to extending beverage ranges and developing distinctive sensory profiles.
MAK’s approach connects each manufacturer’s brief with ingredient selection, technical specifications and the requirements of the intended application.
Guaranteed stock to support production planning
Product development needs continuity of supply. Guaranteed year-round stock availability remains a central pillar of MAK’s commercial proposition.
Based in Murcia, Spain, and serving international markets, the company combines Mediterranean expertise with a practical understanding of industrial sourcing requirements. Product references, anticipated volumes and supply terms form part of the discussion from the outset.
Next stop: Gulfood Manufacturing in Dubai
MAK’s international agenda continues at Gulfood Manufacturing in Dubai this November, providing another opportunity to meet manufacturers, brands and distributors seeking ingredients and supply partners.
Thank you to the customers, partners and industry professionals who visited our stand and shared their projects with the team.
SIAL ends. The conversations continue. Whether we met in Paris or you missed us at the exhibition, contact MAK to tell us what you are developing or arrange a meeting in Dubai.
