Dubai Times All About Dubai
Dubai Times, the leading news and B2B portal connecting Dubai importers with global buyers and suppliers, has compiled a special directory of rice importers in Dubai. The Dubai Rice Importers Directory lists major rice importers in Dubai and is a useful resource for rice exporters looking for rice buyers in Dubai and looking to export rice to Dubai.
Rice importers in Dubai have been buying ever increasing quantities of rice from all across the world in order to meet the rising demand for rice buyers of rise in the Middle East markets as well as for export to re-export markets.
According to industry reports, Dubai imports approximately 1,000 million metric tons of rice per year.
The UAE does not produce rice due to limited water resources and unfavorable weather conditions. Imports this year are forecast to rise further to 1.2 million metric tonnes (+20%) due to increased consumption and government stock building. Around 98% of rice imported to the UAE comprises milled and semi-milled rice.
Imports of rice to Dubai last year were mainly sourced from India (470,000 metric tonnes), followed by Thailand (28,862 metric tonnes) and Brazil (16,925 metric tonnes). While rice imports to the UAE are not subject to a customs tariff, they are subject to a 5% value added tax.
As rice is not grown in the Middle East, importers of rice in Dubai have been buying from overseas suppliers to meet the rising demand for rice amongst Middle East consumers.
