"This is also our 4th year of participation in Paper Arabia. This year, we are the main sponsors, so far we had a very good response from the show. Since the first edition, we have seen the possibilities of the show that is why our interest has grown as well. The show has totally changed and it's different now. It's becoming more popular and I can see more paper mills, our regular customers and some new customers as well. Paper Arabia is a great forum for paper companies like us. We will be coming next year as well with bigger space, because you see the response so far has been excellent not enough space to accomodate visitors coming from all over middle east and rest of the world. I have informed the organizer to increase the space for next year."

"We are from western part of India, we are into manufacturing of machinery making exercise book and paper converting.
This is our 1st time participation in Paper Arabia, we got good feedback from last 3 editions of PAPER ARABIA series and we thought we should participate this time. We got over 100 visitors on 1st day itself 40% were leads related to our products lines. We got enquiries from UAE, Iran, Africa and southern part of Europe and also the exhibition exceeded our expectations.
It was our brand awareness what we wanted to create, we never expected all note book manufacturer coming here, it was very good that we are getting good response and people visiting here are only from paper industries. I think we are going to close some deal by tomorrow with a local dealer. Paper Arabia is a major success to our participation and next time we are participating that for sure that we can commit."

"The visitors are much focused this year. We met many visitors from Gulf countries, Iran and Egypt.
Regarding Paper Arabia and its position as the leading paper trade show in the region - "Some argue that yearly frequency for this show is too much. However I believe Paper Arabia is emerging as the leading paper trade exhibition in the region with its own character. I believe Paper Arabia has already established itself in the potential for the yearly event"
