Region's interiors market tops $2.7bn

Abu Dhabi, March 29, 2008

Interiors UAE, a brand new event for the interiors and furnishing sector, will be inaugurated on Sunday.

The exhibition will shed light on the unparalleled business opportunities in the backdrop of an estimated $100 billion investment in 5 years across leisure, travel and home developments in the region.

The one-of-its-kind exhibition, to continue till April 2 at Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (Adnec), will feature an impressive line up of top brands from around the globe.

CMP Information, UK’s leading exhibition & events firm, is organising the exhibition in joint venture partnership with Channels Exhibitions.

With a booming market of residential and commercial spaces, coupled with an attractive retail market, the 2008 interiors market is expected to exceed a staggering $2.7 billion with  Abu Dhabi fast becoming a commercial hub for the region, connecting East with West, said the organiser.

'Interiors UAE will attempt to meet this ever-growing demand for furnishing in the UAE and region. The exhibition will showcase a diverse product and brand mix, bringing the interiors sector to the forefront and focusing on the unmatched business opportunities in the offing,' Cathy Oates, business development director, CMP Information, said

“The exhibition offers buyers from retail and contract sectors with a rich and inspiring product sourcing opportunity. Specifically aimed at the contract and retail market, Interiors UAE offers a phenomenal platform for companies in a market that is rapidly expanding.'

'And when we are talking about a market that will see an investment of over $100 billion in the next 5 years, there is a continual need for supply to meet the increasing demand.”

Justin Boutros, managing director of Channels Exhibitions, said 'the expo would offer a fusion of exceptional ornate, classic, design-led and modern interior pieces and bring together international and regional players in the interiors sector.'

'This exhibition will help bridge the gap between the suppliers and the inherent potential in the region will offer a unique platform for suppliers to meet potential partners,” he added.

Interiors UAE will also host a seminar – Living With Art – organised by Interiors UAE in conjunction with Eventive.

During the event, the 'Living With Art Interior Design Competition' will be launched. The award will help promote excellence in Abu Dhabi interior design and recognise talent in the region.-TradeArabia News Service
