Three's a crowd - Professional Beauty GCC 2017

Find out why we are expecting even more visitors and exhibitors to flock to the third Professional Beauty GCC expo in 2017

For 2017, we are taking the successes of the previous Professional Beauty GCC exhibitions and adding even more exciting elements into the mix.

The 2016 expo, held for the first time at the Meydan Racecourse, attracted 4,177 decisionmakers from the worlds of beauty, hair and spa. For Janette Gladstone Watts, founder of The Product House, the show provided an “abundance of opportunites”.

“Professional Beauty GCC 2016 surpassed all our expectations in terms of quality of attendees,” she said. “For The Product House it is not just volume of footfall but calibre of audience that is important.

“The venue was easier to access and allowed an abundance of opportunities to meet and discuss business directions and strategies: for our team it was enormously successful.”

Many of the GCCs major players have already signed up to exhibit this year and our growing reputation and expanding and innovative programme of events will be even more of an attraction.

Shuttle buses will be running regularly throughout the exhibition, from Business Bay to the venue, to ensure that visiting is even easier than before.

On the back of the huge success of our Salon International Hair Stage we will be dramatically expanding our hair content. More to be announced soon!

For the 2017 edition, we are also planning a more expansive Beauty Conference after the launch conference wowed a captivated and jam-packed audience last year.

Another exciting new component will be the launch of the International Manufacturers & Distributors Forum (IMF) programme, to assist international companies seeking a GCC distributor establish networking opportunities.

With all this and more (announcements regarding what to expect in 2017 will be made through the Professional Beauty GCC magazine and social media in the run up to the show) Professional Beauty 2017 promises to be another spectacular event.
