Bahrain Chocolate Expo gains momentum

Manama : The second edition of the chocolate and Coffee Exhibition is gaining momentum with 30 Bahraini and GCC companies confirming their participation. 

The three-day event, held under the patronage of Bahrain Tourism and Exhibition Authority (BTEA) Chief Executive Officer Shaikh Khalid bin Humood Al-Khalifa, will open on 7 December 2017 at the Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre (BIECC).

“The positive response of specialised companies from Bahrain and abroad has exceeded all expectations”, said Events Starts – an event management company which organises the expo.

The management firm is aspiring to attract 100 firms to take part in this year’s edition, building on the success of the 2016 expo which achieved 15,000 visitors and 51 companies.

Events Starts CEO, Yasmin Jamal, underlined the importance of Bahrain companies’ participation in the conference which, she said, reflects the vitality of this sector which grew threefold over the past decade in the Kingdom.
