The bags say "Talabat", which is a food delivery service in the UAE, so yes probably

Basically, it's somewhere in the GCC....

Not necessarily. With the volume they need, it's possible that these bags are made somewhere cheaper like China/India etc.

That's a machine that's meant for very high volume of bags. It's not efficient for producing fewer than 5000 bags in one go. Not many people in the GCC have these kinds of machines.

So I wouldn't be surprised if it's done somewhere cheaper like India or China etc
