Hi,

I am sorry if this is a silly question but will I be able to buy cow and gate formula milk for my little one in Dubai - If so is there a chain of supermarkets that will sell it?

My husband has looked in the Carafour and cant seem to find it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

I'm not sure that you will find Cow & Gate in UAE but Nutrilon is a compatible brand. I know this as my kids were born in UAE and I used Nutrilon which isn't available in UK. My doctor recommended Cow and gate for UK and Nutrilon for UAE. Hope that helps.

I have seen Cow&Gate products around, but not specifically formula, cos I don't use it. You could try Waitrose, AlMaya (who have a surprising range of organic baby food too!)... there's also Geant, Choithrams (who do Plum and Ella's kitchen) and Lulu. All to try. There's an Organic Supermarket (Dubai Mall, Greens, Satwa) that does Hipp Baby formula too... I know I'm digressing!

You may get more info on this subject from expatwomen.com

expatwoman.com is the UAE based forum. Cow and Gate is not widely available here. I used Nan which I was told by my paediatrician is the closest to Cow and Gate.

If you do come here, you may have to become a little more open-minded. It's not Middle England, after all.

Originally coming from Hulme in Manchester I am sure I can do open minded!

by the way, what's the norm in UAE? Buffalo's milk or cows?
