SIAL Middle East Purchasers Club

SIAL Middle East 2012 hosted 496 pre-qualified F&B buyers from 18 countries. Their sole purpose in attending SIAL Middle East was to source new products – in fact 84% of hosted buyers had 6 or more meetings with exhibitors.

In 2012 hosted buyers and exhibitors benefitted from the new online diary and meeting system, which allowed them to arrange their itinerary in advance of the event. 


Registration for the SIAL Middle East Purchasers Club will open later in the year.
