FM Expo Saudi draws thousands

FM Expo Saudi 2017, held last month at the Jeddah Centre for Forums and Events in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, drew thousands of facilities management professionals to the dedicated industry event.

The latest products, services and technologies on offer for the sector in Saudi Arabia were showcased through the many live demonstrations at the stands. 

The event, co-located with Saudi Clean Expo and HVAC R Expo Saudi, provided networking opportunities and the chance to participate in free educational programmes. Days two and three saw the Middle East Facility Management Association (Mefma) host a series of certified CPD (continuing professional development) workshops designed to address some of the most critical challenges in the Saudi Arabian market.
