Gulf Weekly Alba renews expo partnership

Alba will again be a Strategic Aluminium Partner for the fourth Gulf Industry Fair (GIF) to be staged in Bahrain early next year following the renewal of a sponsorship agreement with show organisers Hilal Conferences & Exhibitions (HCE).

The sponsorship agreement with HCE, a subsidiary of Bahrain-based Al Hilal Group, is the third successive year that Alba will provide top-level strategic support for the aluminium segment of the show.

GIF will be held at the Bahrain International Convention & Exhibition Centre (BIEC) from February 7-9, 2012. It provides a highly-targeted opportunity for any company or organisation from large-scale manufacturers to specialist equipment suppliers, distributors and agencies to market products or services aimed at the growing industrial sector of the region.

In addition to aluminium, the exhibition covers the key industrial segments of energy, steel and alloys, industrial processes and manufacturing, ports, logistics and free zones, training for industry and industrial security and safety. 

Alba chairman Mahmood Hashim Al Kooheji underlined the importance of promoting the company and its strategic vision in providing competitive value-added products on a global basis. “We are delighted to support the Gulf Industry exhibition and showcase our production capabilities and at the same time support Bahrain as a location for international investors. Alba has recently opened offices in Zurich and is set to expand further into the Far East,” he added.

GIF 2012 will be complemented by the ‘Future is Industry’ Forum, to be held at the BIEC on February 8.
