Dubai: The UAE and Saudi Arabia are at the forefront of a growing GCC lighting sector, with both countries accounting for 70 per cent of the $2.5 billion regional market value in 2013, according to global consultancy firm Frost & Sullivan.
Fuelled by increased demand from the fully revived construction sector, the Gulf lighting fixtures market is expected to grow between 8-10 per cent annually between 2014-2018, creating major opportunities for global manufacturers and designers to capitalise on renewed investment across the region.
More than 250 players are expected to take part in Light Middle East 2014, taking place from November 3-5 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
