SIAL MIDDLE EAST REVIEW
ADFCA has already begun its preparations
for the 9th edition of SIAL Middle East in order
to maximise return for exhibitors and to
increase the number of visitors in line with the
agenda of Abu Dhabi's activities.
Co-located with SIAL, the Abu Dhabi Date
Palm Exhibition is set for a significant
expansion in terms of space and number of
exhibitors in 2018.
Al Qasemi added: “Expanding the Abu
Dhabi Date Palm Exhibition stems from
ADFCA's enthusiasm to develop the date palm
sector in the country and to provide local
JANUARY - MARCH 2018
41
producers with an opportunity to build new
partnerships that promote the Emirati dates
worldwide, enhancing the national economy
and develop date palm industries.”
One of the highlights of SIAL Middle East was
the victory of Emirati citizen Ibrahim Al Mallouhi
who took home the top honours in the prestigious
National Competition for Preparing Coffee.
