At Gulfood 2026 in Dubai, ShimlaRed, the trusted Ready-to-Eat and Ready-to-Cook brand of Shimla Hills Offerings Pvt Ltd., exemplified its journey to a better food future through food innovation. Hosted at Dubai Exhibition Centre, the food expo provided the global food community with an opportunity to connect and discuss business opportunities under one roof. Energy across the major food exhibition in Dubai reflected stronger partnerships and developing food products with a purpose.
We welcomed visitors at our booth: N2-A136, located in North Hall 2 (26–30 January 2026) for meaningful interactions. Throughout our five-day industry showcase, buyers, retailers, and industry leaders came together to explore how Himalayan sourcing meets advanced food innovation. ShimlaRed’s international presence at the global food expo reinforces its growing global footprint and continued growth.
ShimlaRed: A Brand Shaped by the Shimla Hills
Our innovative RTE food products reflect authenticity, balanced flavour profile, and reliability across the globe. Crafted to meet global standards while staying true to Indian flavours, our brand positioning was effective at Gulfood 2026. Visitors to our stand are strongly associated with the brand values we represent. Plus, our product credibility is reflected strongly in our consistently high-quality offerings.
Being a trusted food manufacturing company in India, ShimlaRed offers a heritage-based approach to product development and large-scale production capabilities. Hence, we have gained a reputation for being a trusted food supplier and food exporter in many international markets.
Ready-to-Eat and Ready-to-Cook Innovation
ShimlaRed is changing the way people enjoy their meals. Our premium quality Ready-to-eat food and Ready-to-cook food ranges reflect this shift. The portfolio includes heat-and-eat convenience meals, keeping taste and convenience in mind. Our healthy Ready-to-eat food is perfect for modern day consumers with busy lifestyles.
At the international food exhibition, the visitors and buyers explored our most popular ready-to-eat curry options, like dal makhani ready-to-eat, RTE rajma, RTE shahi paneer, and more. All of these meal options are suitable for households, food services, and institutional kitchens. In addition to the ready-to-eat product lines, there was also a substantial amount of interest in bulk-ready-to-eat meals that can be produced on a larger scale.
In addition to those, we have everything from time-saving solutions for easy cooking meals to RTE meal kits for modern consumption habits. We also found several consumers were interested in our signature products, including our restaurant-style rogan josh and versatile curry pack options. Many of the conversations that we had with customers were about options to buy meals ready-to-eat and how to buy curry online through our RTE section.
Technology, Packaging, and What’s Next
At Dubai Food Expo, we discussed food innovations for existing and future food preferences. Based on that, we have developed our new range of preservative-free, jaggery-based dips and sauces. The majority of people would find these to be attractive as it aligns with health-conscious consumers’ clean-label demand. The most common retail format, like a standard tomato ketchup bottle design, adds retail appeal. This makes our new ketchup and sauces comparable to some of the world’s best ketchup brands.
Our upcoming new product launches, along with instant meals, further showcase our commitment to agri-food tech advancement and food innovation.
Conclusion
ShimlaRed’s direction and confidence were positively impacted by Gulfood 2026. We continue our journey of Himalayan sourcing to global execution, as our scope of possibilities expands. We continue to be a trustworthy food supplier while remaining dedicated to integrity and innovation. Dubai marked another meaningful step in our continuing progress.
