5 MIE Groups brands in Trade & Manufacturing, with the next edition of each and a link to its own site.

Trade & Manufacturing Morocco

China Trade Week Morocco 2026

China Trade Week Morocco brings MIE's China–Africa trade series to Casablanca, at the Foire Internationale de Casablanca. It follows the same model as the group's other CTW editions: Chinese manufacturers exhibiting directly to Moroccan and North African importers, distributors and wholesalers, across machinery, building materials, consumer goods, electronics, automotive parts and textiles. Morocco's value here is its position — a market with preferential access to both Europe and West Africa, which makes it useful to exhibitors thinking beyond a single country. The show runs alongside the group's food and electric mobility events at the same venue and dates, so visitors and exhibitors reach several sectors in one visit.

17-19 November 2026 La Foire Internationale de Casablanca, Casablanca, Morocco

Trade & Manufacturing Saudi Arabia

China Trade Week Saudi Arabia 2026

China Trade Week Saudi Arabia is the Saudi edition of MIE's China–Middle East trade series, held at Dhahran Expo in the Eastern Province — the Kingdom's industrial and energy heartland, and the part of the country where the supply chain for its construction and manufacturing build-out actually sits. Chinese manufacturers exhibit directly to Saudi importers, distributors, contractors and industrial buyers, across machinery, building materials, consumer goods, electronics, automotive parts and textiles. The show's relevance follows Vision 2030: a national programme of industrial diversification and giga-projects needs equipment and materials at volume, and much of it is sourced internationally. It is designed for exporters who want a permanent route to Saudi buyers rather than a single transaction.

14-17 December 2026 Dhahran Expo, Dammam, Saudi Arabia

Trade & Manufacturing Kenya

China Trade Week Kenya 2027

China Trade Week Kenya is the Kenyan edition of MIE's longest-running exhibition series, held in Nairobi and built on a single proposition: bring Chinese manufacturers face to face with East African importers, distributors and wholesalers. The product range is deliberately broad rather than sector-specific — machinery and equipment, building materials, consumer goods, electronics, automotive parts and textiles — because that is how the region's import trade actually works. For Chinese exporters it is a direct route to buyers without an intermediary; for East African importers it is a way to meet factories rather than traders. The series has run across Africa and the Middle East for over a decade, which is what gives it the buyer lists the individual editions rely on.

12-14 May 2027 Bomas International Convention Centre, Nairobi, Kenya

Africa Technology Show Kenya 2027

Africa Technology Show is MIE's technology exhibition for the Kenyan market, held at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre in Nairobi. It covers the equipment and systems that businesses buy when they digitise and industrialise — information and communications technology, industrial and automation technology, electronics and consumer technology — and it is aimed at the resellers, integrators and enterprise buyers who make those purchasing decisions in East Africa. Nairobi's position as the region's technology and startup hub is the reason for the location: a supplier based there reaches Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and beyond from one market. It sits alongside the group's food, trade and electric mobility events, and it is best suited to suppliers seeking distribution partners rather than end consumers.

25-27 July 2027 Kenyatta International Convention Centre, Nairobi, Kenya

Trade & Manufacturing United Arab Emirates

CTW Global 2027

CTW Global is MIE's flagship edition of the China Trade Week series, held in Dubai — a deliberate change of format from the country editions, because Dubai is where the region's trade is brokered rather than consumed. It gathers manufacturers and exporters with the distributors, trading houses, procurement teams and investors who move goods across the Middle East, Africa and Asia. The product range follows the series: machinery and equipment, building materials, consumer goods, electronics, automotive parts and textiles. Held at Atlantis The Palm, it is the group's most internationally mixed event, and the one most used by companies deciding which of the individual country editions to enter first. Buyers across the Gulf, Africa and South Asia attend from one location.

27-28 October 2027 Atlantis Ballroom, Atlantis The Palm, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
