AGRAme co-locates four distinct yet closely linked vertical exhibitions at one comprehensive and powerful B2B platform, providing opportunities for agribusiness professionals from all over the world. The four important sectors represented at AGRAme include agribusiness, poultry & livestock, fishing & aquaculture and flower & garden.
The second edition of the re-launched AGRAme exhibition concluded on 10th April after attracting 20% more visitors as compared to the last year. This year also witnessed a remarkable 80% year-on-year increase in the number of exhibitors. More than 100 leading international agribusiness-related producers and suppliers participated in the show, including over 30 companies from the poultry and livestock sector. Saudi Arabia, China, New Zealand, Turkey, India, USA, UK and UAE were some of the major participating countries.
AGRAme 2009 is going to be held from March 30th - April 1st. To date, 40% of the exhibit space has already been rebooked by the AGRAme 2008 exhibitors, proving the success of the show.

Exhibitor Testimonials
"I would like to Thank the Organisers of AGRE ME show in Dubai 2008 for their help and assistance during the show, it was a well organised event which showcased our product to its best advantage. The show attracted many influential members of the Royal Families from the region who showed great interest in our product and the show in general. From our Companies point of view the show opened many doors for our market penetration, we have already concluded a Joint venture arrangement with an influential company in Jordan to represent our products in that region, and have secured orders from local companies in Saudi Arabia, UAE and some as far away as Morocco and Kenya. The show has proven to be a unique method to have access to the Middle East Markets and we will be the first to commit to the exhibition for 2009."
