Haji Hassan, a Bahrain-headquartered construction-focused group, has for the second successive year signed up as a strategic sponsor of gulfBID exhibition, to be held in the kingdom in April.
gulfBID 2016 is the annual specialist construction and building material exhibition targeting Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, UAE, Oman, Kuwait and Qatar.
The show is held under the patronage of the Prime Minister of Bahrain, HRH Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa, and runs from April 26 to 28 at the Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre.
Adel Hassan Al A’Ali, director of the Haji Hassan Group, said: “Our strategic sponsorship support for gulfBID delivers two goals for the company. Firstly, we look to promote the world-class capabilities of Haji Hassan which has been built over 60 years of expertise and investment in our facilities; and second, we see gulfBID as an important showcase to present Bahrain as a leader in quality building materials.”
Haji Hassan Group, which has joint venture partnerships across the GCC, is a conglomeration of complementary businesses which have been serving the construction and industrial services sectors in Bahrain and the region since 1952.
The company manufactures building materials, precast concrete, ready-mix concrete, plastic and sewage pipes, construction chemicals, concrete blocks, steel reinforcement, rubber and mechanical engineering spare parts, all of which are essential for the construction sector.
The group has an impressive track record of high-profile construction projects in Bahrain. This includes the Sitra Causeway; Durrat Al Bahrain; the North Manama Causeway; runway upgrades and new apron stands at Bahrain International Airport; and the Sofitel Bahrain luxury resort hotel.
“Bahrain has been a pioneer in the building materials sector, not only because of the standards set by the private sector but also because of the stringent specifications imposed by the government through the Ministry of Works,” said Jubran Abdulrahman, managing director of the event organiser HCE.
“The participation of Haji Hassan provides visitors an insight into an iconic company involved in the development of the building materials sector in the GCC who have developed products to meet the the ongoing requirements of the GCC construction sector,” added Abdulrahaman.
A regular exhibitor at gulfBID, Haji Hassan will be showcasing products and services from its portfolio of joint venture partners and divisions, including Bahrain Precast Concrete, Bahrain Blocks, Haji Hassan Readymix, Arabian Chemical Industries (Isola), Haji Hassan Reinforcement, Arabian Parts Company and Bahrain Pipes.
gulfBID takes place alongside two other major exhibitions – the Gulf Property Show and gulf Interiors – thus ensuring the continued success of the biggest integrated business-to-business showcase for the construction, interiors and property sectors in the Northern Gulf.
