Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority’s (BTEA) chief executive Nader Almoayyed applauded the efforts of the organisers and participants of the Autumn Fair for its admirable success.
The 31st edition, which was held under the patronage of the Minister of Industry, Commerce and Tourism and Chairman of BTEA, Zayed bin Rashid Alzayani, attracted 159,217 visitors to the Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre.
The event featured a variety of merchandise that was sold from more than 650 exhibitors from 16 countries around the world as well as specialty food stalls and vendors dedicated to fashion, beauty, home décor, technology, toys, textiles and more.
Nader said: “The Autumn Fair is one of Bahrain’s biggest and most popular events which brings together local, regional and international retailers who offer a variety of products, attracting a large number of visitors from the Kingdom of Bahrain and abroad. This event comes in line with the BTEA’s efforts to drive the development of the tourism sector and we will continue to support such events as we also strive to further promote the Kingdom’s Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE) sector.”
