2 MENOPE 2010 The 8th Middle East Natural & Organic Product Expo 2010 Middle East Natural & Organic Product Expo 2010, the eighth edition of the only exhibition for organic and natural in the Middle East comes in the backdrop of a rapidly growing interest in healthy lifestyle and food habits across the region. Tracking global trends, the organic foods and natural market in the Middle East, including the Gulf States, have been on a consistent growth trail over the last few years. MENOPE 2010 is an ideal platform for global companies to capitalize on this opportunity of the rapid uptake of organic, natural and herbal in the region. MENOPE 2010 will be held in Dubai, the most cosmopolitan city state of the UAE and the business and re-export hub for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Dubai is an acknowledged vantage point for global businesses to spread across the region and offers an ideal growth base with excellent infrastructure and connectivity in transportation. For the existing companies, Dubai offers a platform to expand their presence while for new players, the city offers an ideal base to begin and grow. MENOPE 2010 also comes in the context of a rise in enthusiasm in organic farming and related trading activities in the region. Many prominent GCC countries including the largest market, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, there is tremendous interest in organic farming, which will in turn catalyse the growth of the market for these. It should also be noted that Middle East is the fastest growing market for organic and natural in the world. The 2010 edition of MENOPE comes after seven consecutive successful shows which have helped many global companies launch their as well as operations in the region. In 2009, the show attracted a host of visitors from across the region benefiting exhibitors. The advantage as proven over the years is that MENOPE unlocks the potential for growth in organic and natural in the region. We welcome you at MENOPE 2010 and take advantage of the growth potential of the region. Joby Mathew Muricken Head Exhibitions

For France, we attend MENOPE from its inception and in 2009 what we have seen at a peek of turbulences was very positive and must be known to the community. Middle East is showing a particular interest in food quality and health. That inter-conexion ion was showcased during the last show with the highest concentration of international concepts, organic food, fine food, health food and cosmetics. The market availability of those alternatives also comes with a strong need of information, consumers and professionals asking how should I make the difference? No doubt MENOPE is carving a model of his own and becomes an intense gathering point for stirring up the whole regional market on unique transversal way.
