| Exhibition Overview |
A ‘gold rush’ for clothing, fashion and textiles in the Middle East
|
| High-disposable income due soaring oil prices and high population growth rate are sparking an exceptional demand in the Middle Eastern markets for clothing, fashion and textiles. Lebanon is considered a crossing bridge with other states in the Middle East due to its strategic location. As such, in addition to its reputation for being the fashion capital of the region, Beirut is witnessing traders from across the world in rush to establish a strong foothold in it and further expand to the broader markets of the Middle East. |

Latest collections and a variety of fashion shows all under one roof
|
| Beirut Fashion 2006, held at the prestigious venue, BIEL, is perfectly timed for early launch of international summer collections to the Middle East market. On display will be the latest ready to wear collections, textiles, fashion accessories, leather goods, children’s clothing and accessories and bridal wear, all under one roof. Throughout the event, a variety of fashion shows will be held providing suppliers with additional opportunities and exposure. |

Attracting international shoes & bags manufacturers
|
| The Middle East and Lebanon are lucrative markets for leather goods. The cosmopolitan tastes and appreciation for the latest fashion and accessories are fuelling demand for the full spectrum of leather products including shoes, bags, jackets, gifts and other leather accessories. |
| |
Highly competitive trading environment due to tariff cuts
|
| The Lebanese Government decision to reduce customs on ready-towear by 35% and cancel all duties on raw material and textile is creating a more favorable and highly competitive trading environment. Lebanon can now effectively play the role of a major re-export center of fashion within the region. |
