Saudi Kitchen & Home Accessories 2011

Exhibition name:Saudi Kitchen & Home Accessories 2011

Organiser:Riyadh Exhibitions Company (REC)

venue:Riyadh Exhibition Centre

Detail: A growing, ever-wealthier population, including seven million expatriates, presiding over a total annual purchasing power of $174 billion, has helped make Saudi Arabia the biggest kitchen, bathroom and home accessories market in the region. The growing population, coupled with rising disposable income levels has spurred a regionally-unsurpassed housing boom. Nowhere in the Kingdom is demand stronger than in the capital Riyadh – venue for the show. Riyadh's population is set to grow by several million within the next few years. More than half a million housing units are expected in the Saudi capital Riyadh alone by 2008. And because liquidity is rising in the Kingdom, those who are going to be living in these new homes are looking to spend on accessories. They want not just a place to live. They want to make a statement. This flurry of home construction activity has created a wealth of opportunity for foreign investors. They're being further encouraged by investor-friendly legislation enacted by the Saudi government in a bold effort to attract foreign capital. http://www.recexpo.com/recweb/show_overview.asp?id=112
