SIAL Middle East Purchasers Club
This exclusive club has been created to match food, beverage and equipment buyers with relevant exhibitors to help facilitate business through a series of networking functions throughout 2012, and pre-aranged one-to-one meetings at SIAL Middle East.
At SIAL Middle East last year, this exclusive hosted buyers programme brought 406 pre-qualified buyers together in Abu Dhabi to source new food, beverage and equipment products from around the world.
"It was a great exhibition! I met a lot of people from the industry, made great contacts and closed deals at the show directly. Personal contact is very important to me and I will definitely be back next year." Mr. Hussein Kenaan, GM, Tresor Trading & Contracting Co. (Hosted Buyer)
