An ongoing boom in the Gulf’s property market has positively impacted related sectors – including interior and exterior design, kitchen, table and dining products, home technology, arts and crafts for the home, and garden and outdoor living, says Messe Frankfurt, organisers of the Dubai Ideal Home Show.

The event, which will take place from November 30 to December 3 at the Airport Expo Dubai, will attract hundreds of manufacturers, distributors, retailers, designers, exhibiting products and services for the discerning regional consumers.
“Industry statistics indicate that the total value of real estate projects currently under way in the Middle East region has already crossed the $1 trillion mark,” says Christopher Hudson, exhibitions director of Messe Frankfurt.
“With a variety of mixed-use projects in various stages of development and new projects being announced on a frequent basis throughout the region, the Dubai Ideal Home Show 2006 provides the best opportunity for auxiliary businesses to thrive,” he remarks.
Hudson notes that the UAE and in particular Dubai was the most suitable location to stage a show that will bring together experts from the fields of interior design, landscaping, arts, crafts and allied sectors together under one roof.
“We feel that the regional industry has a lot to benefit from participating in an event of this stature,” Hudson comments.
