VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Urban Barns Foods Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board:URBF.ob - News), a leading authority on sustainable development of fresh fruits, vegetables, and produce, has opened its first representative office in Dubai and hired the first of its local employees.

Mr. Dan Meikleham, Chairman of the Board for Urban Barns, said, "Dubai has developed into the center of business and commerce not only for the Middle East but for the whole of Asia, including India, China, and all Africa, all of which are potential markets for Urban Barns. We believe that setting up our first representative office in Dubai will allow us to communicate Urban Barns' pipeline plans to our regional and international audience and indicates our serious commitment to be at the forefront of providing sustainable agricultural solutions."

Mr. Mark Hanson, Director of Urban Barns added, "I have been living and working in the Middle East and South East Asia for many years. One topic that is constantly in the news is that the world food system is in crisis. Food safety, security and traceability are huge issues today."

In a further statement Mr. Meikleham added, "The current agricultural model is already running on empty. Introducing a system that directly addresses local food supply from a sustainable environment with a reduced carbon footprint as well as being extremely sensitive to water conservation is long overdue."
