Jordanbuild 2010
August 2, 2010
Amman, Jordan

Jordan International Building, Construction and Engineering Industries Exhibition – August 2 to 5, 2010.

Jordanbuild 2010 is the only building trade exhibition designed for real and practical face-to-face business with prospects and customers across the region. In today’s multi-channel information age, with ever tougher competition and shorter times to create an impact, we deliver unequalled business-to business opportunities for critical one-to-one communication with your target audience.

The industry’s biggest building show in the region, Jordanbuild now is a yearly event. This means it’s firmly established as the annual meeting place for the building trade to find out the latest in the world’s construction; and there’s widening regional interest too.

A staggering billions of real live business projects were represented by visitors at the 2009 event, with a 52% increase compared to 2008. Our success reflects Jordanbuild’s practical, let’s do it approach. Like off-site manufacture and Eco building, topics where you told us you found accessible quality solutions and contacts at Jordanbuild 2009 that helped you penetrate these rapidly growing sectors across the region.

Jordanbuild 2009 welcomed 9,200 visitors from both Jordan and the region, proving itself to be an essential show for key industry buyers looking to identify new products, trends and ideas.

With the launch of a variety of showcases and interactive events, this year proved to be an exciting event for a vast range of products, all demonstrating innovation and quality.

Staged in the A.I.M.S. larger pavilions, new-look Jordanbuild will utilize the same logical layout and boast the same quantity -- and quality -- of exhibitors and visitors. Delivering a lively program of informative seminars, it will present a jam-packed, four days of valuable business.

With support from the government ministries and concerned directories and departments, and the industry’s leading trade associations and representation from the cream of the Jordanian construction and building materials business, we invite you to join the Jordanbuild 2010 building community. We look forward to working with you to make the most of your presence at Jordanbuild 2010.
