Ahmed Pauwels, the CEO of Messe Frankfurt Middle East, commented: “The Middle East and Africa remains a major market for paper, stationery, and office supplies, with international manufacturers viewing the region as a key customer base, with high demand for printed media products. An added benefit for exhibitors at Paperworld Middle East is they can leverage its enviable advantage of being located in Dubai, the trade and commerce hub of the entire Middle East and Africa.”
