The Ministry of Economy and Commerce (MEC) has called on all restaurants and cafes in the country to use locally-made products in their food and beverage items.
This is in line with efforts being undertaken to support national products, which, in turn, will reflect positively on the country's economy.
The MEC had earlier launched an initiative that aims to “support and market national products in the local market, support and ease investors’ access to consumers and open markets to merchants and investors seeking to launch new products”.
The initiative, it is hoped, will contribute to the State’s efforts to prioritise national products as part of its strategic plans and pillars of its economic diversification strategy aimed at achieving Qatar National Vision 2030.
