The fourth Hardware & Tools Exhibition in Dubai attracted around 6 000 trade visitors from the Golf States, Iran, Russia, India and other countries in the Middle East and Africa. They included buyers from big trading groups such as Ace Hardware, to give one example. The fair was held in parallel to the Housewares & Homewares event. The biggest contingent of foreign exhibitors came from Germany, which was represented by a group stand. Next year’s exhibition will take place from 16 to 19 May.
