E
ndorsed by the Ministry

Egypt, the Cairo
WoodShow is the premier
destination for wood
specialists who visit the show
every year from across the
globe. It is the region’s
dedicated business-to-
business meeting place for the
wood, wood accessories and
woodworking machinery
industry.
The tradeshow defines its own identity although following
the WoodShow’s overall spirit and objectives and is one of
the largest and most developed international exhibitions in
the North African region for the wood and woodworking
machinery industry.
The fourth edition had a successful run and went beyond
expectations in catering to the wood and woodworking
machinery professionals, by providing a unique platform
for interaction and close lucrative business deals during
the exhibition.
The fifth edition continues to provide opportunities for
business professionals not to just meet industry experts,
but also learn about the latest trends, technologies and
products. Exhibitors will also have the open platform to
sell and close business deals onsite. Visitors will enjoy the
atmosphere that prevails which is similar to any leading
international event and also forge valuable contacts to
expand their scope of business.
The Cairo WoodShow plays a fundamental role in further
developing the market of wood and wood machinery
industry in the heart of Cairo, one of the most vibrant
marketplaces and the capital of the North African
commodities market.
