Packed with over 700 exhibitors from 20 countries, this 13,300 square metre shopping extravaganza showcases thousands of products from across the globe.
A huge variety of goods will go on sale during the 9 day period, ranging from specialty food, fashion and furniture; to technology, toys, textiles and much more.
"The Autumn Fair is a hugely popular annual event in Bahrain's calendar with a unique atmosphere. Now in its 24th successful year, the whole of the exhibition centre is transformed into a colourful bazaar by traders who have travelled from far and wide to Bahrain, bringing with them their country's best exports. The largest international groups assemble to form national pavilions and include countries such as China, Egypt, Kuwait, Turkey, Syria, UAE and Pakistan," said Arabian Exhibition Management's project manager Mohammed Ebrahim.
"With so many exhibitors, prices at the Autumn Fair can be competitive. There are potential bargains on new to market products and a host of regular visitor favourites. There is also a strong business to business element. The Autumn Fair acts as an important sourcing venue for local companies, and wholesale agreements and new partnerships will be established during the course of the exhibition. Numerous local businesses also regularly take part in the exhibition and many offer special deals to visitors," he continued.
