Key trade buyers for these projects visit InRetail from all over the region to keep up to date with new products, innovations and market trends. With the continued growth and development of retail outlets across the region, InRetail is the essential platform for worldwide exhibitors to launch and showcase the best of the best from their latest range of products.

Being the Middle East’s leading retail and networking event, InRetail provides a platform for important relationships to be established between buyers and exhibitors looking for potential and new business partners and distributors.

If you want to sell to the key decision makers who hold the budgets for the MENA (Middle East & North Africa) region’s largest ongoing and future retail projects, then you need to exhibit at InRetail.

To ensure that exhibitors meet the right buyers we have introduced an exclusive VIP Key Buyers Programme. Exhibitors will be offered pre-arranged meetings with the region’s most influential VIP retail buyers. Our unique match making programme joins exhibitors and buyers together to maximise business opportunities and return on investment. 

“Dubai emerged as the 4th most international retail city in the world and hosts 46% of the world’s top retailers, confirming its position as a new force in global retailing. Factors contributing include the recent development boom which created significant amounts of new retail space, the region’s appetite for international brands, a network of franchise partners which helps retailers to effectively expand into the market and events like the annual Dubai Summer Surprises and Dubai Shopping Festival”.
