Doha: Qatar Chamber of Commerce and Industry announced that the 5th edition of "Made in Qatar" exhibition will be held in the capital Riyadh from November 6 to 9, 2016.
During a press conference to announce the promotional campaign for the exhibition, Chairman of Qatar Chamber Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim Al-Thani said that "Made in Qatar" will be held outside Qatar for the first time, having gained special importance since its inception in 2009 and during the previous four editions, which gave the Chamber and all the participants a strong impetus towards achieving more success and ambition.
He underlined the Chamber's keenness to promote the exhibition and Qatari products in the regional markets.
He noted that the Chamber has decided that the exhibition's first launch abroad should be in the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in recognition of its leading economic experience and its prestigious and important status at the political, economic, commercial and social levels.
He said that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the most important trading partners of the State of Qatar at the level of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), hailing its industrial development which was achieved in record time, and the distinct Saudi market which has a variety of industries and potentials capable of accommodating all commercial activities.
He called for seizing the "Made in Qatar 2016" opportunity to promote communication between dealers and manufacturers from both countries, expressing confidence that the exhibition will open new horizons for cooperation between entrepreneurs of the two countries.
Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim Al-Thani highlighted the importance of the exhibition and its yield on the Qatari economy as it supports and enhances the development of the industry sector.
