For a newly - established company who was barely into its 5th month of operations in the UAE when the event took place, venturing into the Dubai WoodShow was certainly a big leap for H O M A G Equipment Machinery Trading (HEMT). But careful planning, organization and regular coordination with the organizers have proven to be an effective tool at accomplishing our goals for the show. The outcome was astounding. We had the chance to re-connect with long-standing clients; attracted new customers as well as established new contacts. More importantly, the show has helped us secure new business prospects not only in the UAE but also in other areas of the ME region.
In conclusion, the Dubai WoodShow has been a perfect platform for HOMAG group’s up-to-the-minute breakthroughs in the woodworking technology, and it has undoubtedly bolstered our commitment to our customers that with HEMT around, they will surely get to benefit from all product support packages and services that the HOMAG group has made available in the market.

The Dubai WoodShow is an essential showcase for Canada’s hardwood industry that wants to offer its products to the Middle East. Dubai is a hub but the Dubai WoodShow is truly a gathering place where importers and manufacturers worthy of participating have an excellent opportunity to meet. The trade fair lasts three days, just enough time to network with a multitude of contacts or potential buyers. It is perfect for exhibitors.
Since the last four editions we participate as exhibitor at Dubai WoodShow every year, with a great success. The Middle East market represents a considerable segment of our trade, and Dubai WoodShow, as the leading exhibition in this area, has resulted to be for our Company a very important opportunity to establish new relationships as well as to keep in touch with our usual customers. This is why we are very pleased to confirm our presence for the next coming editions!
