Kuwait City, October 30, 2007

Mabanee Company, Kuwait's premier real estate investment and construction company, is all set for its maiden participation at the international retail real estate event Mapic in Cannes, France.

The company's iconic Avenues Mall is being nominated for the prestigious Mapic Awards.

Mabanee will be present at booth number R37.17 at Mapic 2007. The event will be held at Palais des Festivals in Cannes, France, from November 14 to 16 and expects participation from over 67 countries, more than 1900 retailers and almost 900 exhibitors.

The $2 billion mega project which was launched in February 2007, has the distinction of being the largest mall in Kuwait and a landmark in the regional retail scene. It is already a popular destination with its array of high profile international brands and a variety of entertainment and recreational facilities.

"With the Avenues Mall now firmly established as a premier shopping and leisure destination, Mapic is the perfect occasion for us to present to the world our accomplishment in project development, strategic approach towards malls as destinations and our success in attracting top regional and international brands, "said general manager of Mabanee Company Khaled K Bin Salama.
