Saudi Arabia’s Al-Harithy Company for Exhibitions (ACE) is to launch two new events in partnership with Messe Frankfurt.

The inaugural Materials Handling & Logistics Exhibition and Conference in Saudi Arabia will be held on November 28 and 29 at the Park Hyatt, Jeddah. The show covers the profiles of intralogistics, warehousing, supply chain, ports, ports equipment and related products and services.

The event will also feature a forum on supply chain and logistics focusing on the opportunities and challenges which the new environment presents.  

ACE will also launch the first edition of Intersec – the leading trade fair for safety, security and fire protection – in the kingdom next year.

 Intersec Saudi Arabia will run from May 2 to 4,  2017, and focus on a sector that has seen exponential growth in the kingdom, targeting a market forecast to increase from $7.8 billion to $15.4 billion by 2018.
