The Ajman Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) is participating in the Malaysia International Halal Showcase (Mihas), which will be held from September 7-10 with the participation of more than 1,900
companies around the world.
This is part of the ACCI’s plan to intensify the participation of its members in foreign exhibitions with a view to discovering foreign markets and discussing ways to form partnerships and exchange deals to increase the volume of foreign trade and promote the potential and investment opportunities available in the emirate.
Abdullah Abdulmohsen Al Nuaimi, Director of Relations and Members Support Office, stated that the Ajman Chamber is participating with six leading factories from the food and beverage sector in this edition of the Mihas, in order to achieve the ACCI’s objectives aimed at enhancing the sustainability and growth of the business community and diversifying the possibilities of competitiveness and leadership, in addition to chamber’s efforts in enhancing the exchange of experiences between business owners in Ajman and their counterparts from abroad.
He explained that the food industry sector is one of the most promising sectors in the emirate and provides quality investment opportunities. He also noted that the number of factories operating in the food and beverage sector in Ajman reached 34 factories during the year 2021, and the contribution of the food and beverages sector to the total industrial output of Ajman amounted to 4 percent during the year 2021, with an annual growth rate of 29 percent compared to the year 2020, which reflects the successive growth of the food and beverage sector.
The Ajman Chamber strengthened its participation during the year 2022 by participating in the Egypt Petroleum Show “EGYPS 2022”, and also participated with a delegation from the emirate’s factories producing perfumes to participate in the activities of the “Cosmetista Expo North & West Africa – Casablanca”.
