It further stated that it is keen to strengthen its ongoing efforts to facilitate the smooth movement of foodstuff trade through its customs centres and to support the Country's efforts to achieve foodstuff security, especially in the current exceptional circumstances the world is going through.
"The inspectors of the General Administration of Abu Dhabi Customs are working on providing the best customs services to food dealers in line with the country's efforts to provide food and medicine indefinitely according to the guidelines of the rational leadership, which will meet all the needs of citizens and residents of foodstuff and consumer goods," it said in a statement.
